Chelsea are poised to name club legend Frank Lampard as their caretaker manager until the end of the season, replacing acting head coach Bruno Saltor.
Since Graham Potter was fired last weekend, the Blues have been searching for a new leader. Out-of-work Luis Enrique and Julian Nagelsmann are two names linked with the job.
Chelsea are set to appoint former record goal scorer Frank Lampard as caretaker manager for the remainder of this season, according to The Guardian. After Graham Potter's dismissal from Chelsea, talks have already started between both parties in an effort to fill his shoes.
Lampard's appointment could be a major coup for Stamford Bridge as they aim to finish the season strong. However, his appointment isn't seen as a long-term solution and the club are considering up to seven managers in their search for an interim boss.

Over his 13-year career at Chelsea, Lampard played an integral role in helping them capture three Premier League titles and four FA Cups. He was twice named Chelsea Player of the Year - 2005 and 2008 - as well as winning FIFA Players' Player of the Year awards in 2005 and 2008.
He's been out of work since Everton sacked him in January, but 90min is willing to step in as caretaker while they search for a long-term replacement. We think this move would be very popular amongst those at Stamford Bridge and we think he can be just the person to inspire them as they aim for Champions League glory this term.

Lampard served as manager of Chelsea for three years until his departure in January 2021. During that time, Lampard won the Champions League with Chelsea and mentored a number of young players through his experience at the club.
Bruno Saltor joined Chelsea in September 2022 after spending a decade playing for Brighton. During that time, he made 235 appearances for the Seagulls and earned promotion to the Premier League in 2017.

Frank Lampard has been suggested as a potential caretaker manager at Chelsea for an interim period. This would give the club time to make a decision on who will succeed him until that position becomes vacant.
Since being released by Everton in January, the former midfielder has been linked with a return to management. It appears Chelsea have decided to give him that chance; however, they may be wary of bringing him in too soon.
