Chelsea reach agreement to install Lampard on interim basis - Ornstein (reliability: 5 stars)

According to The Athletic's David Ornstein, Chelsea have reached an agreement in principle to make Frank Lampard an interim manager.

The former Chelsea player and manager will be installed until the end of the season while the club continues the search for Graham Potter's full-time replacement.

Lampard will be joined by Ashley Cole, Joe Edwards and Chris Jones as his coaching staff. They all worked with the 44-year-old at Chelsea, as well as at Everton before Lampard was sacked in January.

Bruno Saltor who took charge of Chelsea in the goalless draw with Liverpool is likely to leave after making his desire to do so pretty clear.

Lampard is expected to be put in charge ahead of the Wolves game this weekend.
