Having barely touched down on NYC soil, Andrea Pirlo followed up his introductory press conference with a trip to Downtown United Soccer Club to support the clubs' summer camp.
A fine way to start as you mean to go on; lend a helping hand in the local neighbourhood. With the kids all donning adidas NYCFC t-shirts with 'Pirlo 21' on the back, the suave king of cool helped with a 45 minute training session on the Pier 40 pitches in Manhattan.
With every sweeping pass of perfection, we await the time when him, Frank Lampard and David Villa are all on the pitch together.
