It is said that Frank Lampard plans his staff behind the scenes at Chelsea, his appointment as a director at Stamford Bridge is closer.
The current boss, Maurizio Sarri, is about to return to Italy to join Juventus, the reigning Serie A champion, a year after his arrival in West London, despite his win in the Europa League and his third place in the Premier League.
Lampard is the obvious and obvious favorite to replace the Italian, having spent the first year of his executive career at Derby, where he narrowly missed the Premier League promotion in the playoff final.
Following recent reports that Chelsea would wait for Derby to confirm the availability of Lampard, The Sun now reports that the deal is about to be concluded, with Sarri's move to Juventus set in motion.
The report also details Lampard's plans for his behind-the-scenes staff, including the appointment of Jody Morris as badistant director, Didier Drogba as strike coach and Shay Given as guardian coach.
Aston Villa's new badistant director, John Terry, will have no place in the new configuration and the problem regarding Gianfranco Zola, who is unwilling to accept a demotion to the club, has not been resolved yet.
Drogba, who met Lampard during the week, has already talked about the possibility that the former midfielder will take over, stating:
"I think it's a very good option for the club.
"Is he forced to wait 40 or 50 years to be ready? I think it depends on your experience and depends on your desire to succeed and do it.
"If he feels ready, I do not think it's too early. Every summer is big in Chelsea. Every summer is big. "
