DBasia.news – Last season, Chelsea under the direction of Maurizio Sarri, successfully won the Europa League title by beating Arsenal with a landslide score of 4-1. The results were achieved after being inconsistent in the middle of the season.
Unfortunately, this did not necessarily make Sarri last a long time in London, the 60-year-old man only stayed for one season and chose to return to Italy and manage Juventus.
The void in the Blues manager’s chair certainly made the public curious about who would be his successor, but in the last few weeks, Frank Lampard’s name was the one who was strongly suspected of going to the team starting the upcoming 2019/20 season. Even Derby County, the club that is currently being handled by Lampard has allowed Chelsea to negotiate.
Although Lampard is a club legend and very much loved by Stamford Bridge, there are fears that he will not last long as a manager, especially club owner Roman Abramovich is known as a figure who likes to sack managers, there have been 14 people who signed the Blues after he acquired the club in 2003 ago.
But it seems that now Chelsea fans can breathe a sigh of relief, according to the Mirror report, Abramovich has promised Lampard that he will give plenty of time for the 41-year-old man to be able to deliver the club to a lot of success.
Lampard’s experience as a manager is not that much, he only coached Derby County one season, but in his inaugural season, Chelsea’s all-time top scorer also successfully drove his team into the playoffs, unfortunately, The Rams failed to promote to the Premier League because they lost to Aston Villa.
Lampard is not the only club legend to return to Stamford Bridge. Before, the 2012 Champions League champion has also appointed Petr Cech as a technical advisor.
