Frank Lampard has accepted an offer to return to Chelsea as their interim manager[3]. Lampard previously managed the club, but his tenure came to an end in 2021 after a series of challenges and poor performance[5].
The club has been in talks with several potential candidates for the managerial position, including former Barcelona and Spain national team coach Luis Enrique[4]. However, the decision was made to bring back Lampard until the end of the season.
This move comes after Lampard’s successful managerial spell with the club, during which he led Chelsea to a top-four finish in the Premier League and an FA Cup final appearance[1]. Lampard’s appointment has received the backing of Chelsea’s potential new owner Todd Boehly, who expressed his support for the former player and manager[2].
Lampard’s return to Stamford Bridge is expected to bring a sense of familiarity and stability to the club as they navigate through the remainder of the season. Fans and the club alike will be eager to see how his second stint at Chelsea unfolds and if he can guide the team to success once more
