Frank Lampard could join Derby County as he seeks to take his first steps in the world of football management.
Lampard, the former Chelsea and England midfielder, retired as a player at the beginning of 2017 and he has spent the last year taking his coaching badges and working in the media.
Derby are on the lookout for a new manager as Gary Rowett, who guided the Rams to the play-off semi-finals before suffering defeat at the hands of Fulham, was hired by Stoke earlier this week following their relegation from the Premier League.
