Lampard says ‘easy decision’ to return to Chelsea

When Chelsea came calling Frank Lampard admits it was an “easy decision” to accept a caretaker manager role back at a club where he set records, won multiple trophies and was eventually sacked.

The 44-year-old was confirmed as the club’s interim manager on Thursday in the wake of Graham Potter’s dismissal – giving him an unexpected chance to reclaim the Stamford Bridge hotseat.
