Frank Lampard is still being paid his £75,000-a-week salary by former club Chelsea despite being sacked in January, according to reports.
In a move to mitigate the huge compensation the Blues have had to pay to previous axed managers, Lampard has been kept on the payroll in west London and is due a whopping £1.8million, according to The Sun.
That figure accounts for Lampard's £75,000-a-week salary that he earned during his spell as manager at Stamford Bridge. An agreement was struck on his dismissal that he will continue to receive the sum until July.
