Frank Lampard is set to take over at Chelsea as interim manager until the end of the season

Lampard was in attendance at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday night to watch the Blues draw 0-0 with Liverpool in the first game of the post-Graham Potter era.

After the former Brighton boss was sacked on Sunday, his former assistant Bruno Saltor took charge of first-team duties for the evening - and seems likely to remain in the post until a permanent replacement is found.

Chelsea have instead turned to Lampard, who was sacked as Everton manager earlier this year.
