Chelsea legend, Frank Lampard is being touted as part of the team to replace Antonio Conte as Chelsea’s manager at the end of 2017/2018 season.

Frank Lampard, who scored 211 career goals for Chelsea might be part of the Blues first team-coach, a step that will make him Chelsea manager in the future.

The SUN believes Luiz Enrique or Carlo Ancelotti will eventually take over the Conte’s position as he is the favourite to take over the coaching position of the Italian national team.

The former English midfield maestro is presently studying for his UEFA “A” coaching licence that will enable him become eligible to manage top clubs in Europe.

Lampard has previously rejected a top coaching role at MK Dons and Oxford United for an opportunity to work with Chelsea’s Under-18 coach, Jody Morris.

Reports at the Stamford Bridge indicate that Chelsea’s top management are pleased with Lampard progressive performance and will be happy to have him in a first team role at Chelsea.

The occasional football pundit might have to wait for his turn as Chelsea’s manager, and he will have no problem learning under Luiz Enrique or whoever Chelsea appoints as manager.

Like many present trend in sports coaching, where former players are managing their respective clubs. The 39 year old Englishman will be looking to join the likes of Zidane at Madrid, Gattuso at AC Milan, and Simeone at Atletico who have all succeeded as players and now as coaches for their respective clubs
