Frank
Lampard has arrived at Stamford Bridge as he nears being appointed the new
Chelsea manager.
Derby County granted Chelsea permission to speak to Lampard last week and
the 41-year-old is at Stamford Bridge to finalise talks to become successor
to Maurizio Sarri.
It is believed the 41-year-old has been seeking assurances about owner Roman
Abramovich's expectations and the club's plans once FIFA's transfer embargo
expires.
Sky Sports have been told the interview process included an open
exchange of views, with both sides wanting to be certain the relationship
would work for them.
Lampard won 11 major trophies, including three Premier League titles and the
2012 Champions League during his 13 years at Chelsea.
The former England international also remains the club's all-time leading
scorer with 211 goals.
