Frank Lampard has been named Chelsea’s new head coach to replace Maurizio Sarri, returning to the club where he spent 13 years as a player.
The legendary midfielder, who won 11 major honours during his playing days at Stamford Bridge, takes over from Sarri following the Italian’s return to Serie A with Juventus.
Lampard has just one year of managerial experience gained at Derby County but returns to the Blues on a three year contract.
He guided Derby to the Championship play-offs last season, earning praise for his style of play, only to suffer a 2-1 defeat to Aston Villa in May’s final.
Chelsea have reportedly paid £4million in compensation to secure new leadership of a team that won the Europa League and finished third in the top flight last term.
His first competitive match in charge is away to Manchester United in the Premier League on August 11, with the UEFA Super Cup against Liverpool to follow three days later.
