The Blues eye Lampard as the replacement for Italian manager Sarri
Former player Frank Lampard has been tipped off a move to the Stamford Bridge next season to undertake the manager job according to the Daily Mail.
Meanwhile, Maurizio Sarri’s stance with the Blues remains uncertain and the Italian boss has been linked with a move to Juventus.
Lampard, the Derby County manager, is off to a great start in his managerial stint, leading the Rams to the Championship play-off final.
The former English midfielder has won 24 matches with the Championship side and the notable one was against Leeds United in the play-offs semi-final where Derby produced a dramatic comeback.
Now, the 40-year-old is set to face Dean Smith’s Aston Villa in the final this week.
On the other hand, Sarri has been receiving the stick lately for his lack of rapport with the fans and players despite a decent season in the Premier League.
The former Napoli boss inspired the Londoners to the Europa League final, which will be played against Arsenal later this month.
Furthermore, the Blues have ensured their qualification to Champions League next season after finishing third in the Premier League table.

It is also believed that the Blues will not interfere in Sarri’s way if he seeks an exit this summer.
