Chelsea Reportedly Want Frank Lampard to Become Blues Coach, Future Manager

Chelsea reportedly want Frank Lampard to join the club's first-team coaching staff ahead of a potential future role as manager.

According to The Sun's Jordan Davies, Chelsea want their all-time record goalscorer to be taken under the wing by Antonio Conte's replacement—the Italian is expected to leave in the summer—groomed for a management role at Stamford Bridge.

Lampard is eager to manage and has been working towards his UEFA A coaching licence over the past 18 months, while he has worked as a coach of the Blues' under-18 side under former Chelsea team-mate Jody Morris for the past year.
