The Blues are currently touring in the Land of the Rising Sun, and the latest update suggests that Cole, 38, could land for a sensational return to Chelsea.
The former star of Arsenal and England withdrew from football at the end of the 2018-19 season.
Cole joined Lampard in Derby after the end of the MLS season, where he was playing for LA Galaxy.
He helped the Rams reach the final of the championship playoffs, where they eventually failed at Aston Villa.
But he can now join Lampard again, this time in the Premier League, in the club where he has won seven major trophies – including the Premier League and the Champions League – in eight years.
ANOTHER?
Cole could also join another Lampard's old friend, Jody Morris, who will badume the role of deputy chief in his former club.
The 40-year-old former midfielder played 173 times for Chelsea between 1996 and 2003, while another former teammate, Hilario, had become goalkeeper coach.
And yet another legend from Chelsea recently alluded to an badociation with Lamps at Stamford Bridge … Michael Ballack.
Last month, the German revealed that he was working for his UEFA B license, suggesting that he could be lined up for a new concert in Chelsea.
On top of that, the Stamford Bridge worship icon wished Lampard a happy birthday last week, saying he would "see him again soon".
Ballack wrote accompanying a photo of the two friends: "Happy Birthday @franklampard – pbad a great … see you soon."
In addition to this suggestive article, the former Bayern Munich star shared a photo of himself in Wales while he was trying to get his first coaching badge.
Ballack explained: "Make my UEFA B license #coaching Back to school #UEFA #BLicense".
Didier Drogba is only one of Lampard's former teammates, linked to a "home move" to join the young coaches.
