Yossi Benayoun has revealed he is targeting a move to MLS when his contract with Chelsea expires on June 30.

The Israeli joined the Europa League winners in 2010, but made just one league start for the club before being sent on loan to first Arsenal and then West Ham.

The 33-year-old has not been offered a new deal at Stamford Bridge, and has now set his sights on securing a move to the United States.

“I’m in talks with several European teams. I’m checking out the options, but to tell you the truth, America is one of my favourite options,’’ Benayoun told the New York Post.

“If I leave England it will be only for something challenge, a new style of life like America.

“I love America. Any interesting, good city that you have a nice lifestyle I could give my wife and family. It is more important for me to give them a good lifestyle, schools, everything and then hopefully to enjoy football.

“Of course New York would be great. But Chicago, Los Angeles — America has a lot of options.’’
