LAMPARD
While the Gunners have frustrated Patrick Vieira, Dennis
Bergkamp and Thierry Henry, cross-London rivals will give their record scorer a
choice of three roles.
Chelsea will offer Frank Lampard a job at Stamford Bridge following his exit from New York
City.
The legendary midfielder, 38, will leave
the Major League Soccer side when
his contract expires at the end of the year.
And the Blues are prepared to have him back in a coaching,
ambassadorial or mentoring capacity.
Lampard revealed last month that
he is keen to go into the former.
Chelsea are keen to embrace
their former stars, to prevent the kind of breakdown in relationship that has
occurred with former players at Arsenal.
Patrick
Vieira, Dennis Bergkamp and Thierry Henry are among a number of ex-pros who have expressed
frustration at being overlooked by Gunners boss Arsene Wenger after hanging up
their boots.
Lampard left Chelsea in 2014 as
the club’s record scorer with 211 goals.
He
has clinched three Premier League titles - including their first in 2005, four
FA Cups, two League Cups, the European Cup and Europa League during his time at
Stamford Bridge.
