Chelsea legend Frank Lampard has teased a return to management, 10 months after his disastrous spell as caretaker boss of his old club. 

Lampard had headed back to the Stamford Bridge dugout part way through last season following the sackings of Thomas Tuchel and Graham Potter. 

But it turned out to be a miserable period as the Blues won just one of his 11 games in charge. The 45-year-old has since appeared on TV on a pundit and often noted his delight in spending time with family. 

In fact, Lampard maintains that he is relishing the quality time with his children but stated that he is now keeping his eyes open for his next role. 

‘I’m enjoying being with the family and looking to get back at some point.’ He told talkSPORT. ‘Hopefully something comes up that feels right for me, I’m keen to get working again but as I reiterate, I’m enjoying family life.

‘It’s an intense job so when you’re out of it, it’s nice to appreciate being around all my children.

‘You love the job. you understand the rigours of it in the modern day. I’ve enjoyed all the clubs I’ve worked with.

‘They’ve all been big challenges for different reasons. I enjoy working with players, improve players and the team, so let’s see what comes.’

The former England international’s first managerial position came with Derby County, with whom he advanced to the Championship play-off final in 2018. 

Remarkably, that was enough for the Blues to come knocking a year later as they prepared to embark on a season with a transfer ban.

Lampard was key in facilitating the first team integration of youngsters such as Tammy Abraham, Fikayo Tomori, Mason Mount and Reece James, though he was ultimately dismissed just 18 months into the contract. 

In January 2022, he took the risky decision to manage relegation-threatened Everton but he led them to safety only to last a few more months in the job before he was sacked just a year later.
