Chelsea have to pay £4m to bring Frank Lampard to Stamford Bridge
Chelsea are required to pay £4m to bring Frank Lampard to Stamford Bridge, according to the Sun.
The Derby County manager is largely tipped to take the charge at Stamford Bridge as Maurizio Sarri has joined Juventus.
The Italian gaffer had a wonderful stint in Premier League, guiding the Blues to Europa League glory and ended up third in Premier league table. However, he became a polarizing figure among the Blues faithful owing to his style of play and the lack of rapport with the players.
Now, the Blues have to pay the Rams a compensation of £4m in order to relieve Lampard from Championship. The ex-Blues man fared well in his first ever managerial stint, guiding the Rams to play-offs final before they lost to Aston Villa. He holds a winning percentage of 42 with 24 wins, 16 losses and 17 draws in 57 matches.

Massimiliano Allegri is another name linked with a move to Stamford Bridge, who recently sought his exit from Juve.
The Blues have been handed a transfer ban for the next two transfer windows and it remains to be seen whether it would be uplifted or not.
