Former Chelsea and Manchester City [https://www.essentiallysports.com/pep-guardiola-picks-world-cup-favourites/] midfielder, Frank Lampard was on Thursday unveiled as Derby County’s manager for the 2018-19 season, with him signing a three-year deal with the Rams. He replaces Gary Rowett, who quit the club to join Stoke City. Lampard had retired from football in 2017 and has been actively working towards getting a UEFA A license for coaching. He spent a lot of time training with the youth academy of former club, Chelsea. This is where he met Jody Morris, who he chose to be his deputy at Derby County. Morris led the Chelsea U-18’s to seven trophies in just over two years in charge and Lampard, who had seen it live was visibly impressed with him. He suggested Morris to be his understudy and was granted his wish. Speaking about his new assignment, Lampard said, “I’ve always wanted to manage a club with a big tradition and history like Derby County, so this is a huge opportunity. I have spent considerable time discussing the role and the club’s objectives with the chairman and board members.” He also outlined the club’s aspirations for the upcoming season. “We want to build on the club’s top six finish in the Championship last season, while at the same time bringing through some of the excellent youth and academy talent we have at Pride Park.” Considering that he is a Premier League legend, he surely could have secured a job with a Premier League club. But Lampard admitted he did not mind grinding it out by managing a Championship club. “I’m certainly not scared to get my hands dirty slightly lower down because that’s the reality of it, you have to prove yourself.” “It’s my dream to manage at the top. There are a lot of different routes you can take, Steven Gerrard working with the young lads at Liverpool for instance. Do you step down into the Championship or lower leagues and try and take a job on at that level?” “I wouldn’t want to go into anything without setting those sights as high as I possibly can”, added Lampard. Lampard’s appointment follows that of Gerrard’s at Rangers [https://rangers.co.uk/] in the Scottish Premiership and Ryan Giggs as Wales manager a few months back. It marks a new chapter in the lives of these legends and they would want to emulate what they did in their playing careers. 

The Championship side lost to Fulham in the playoff semifinals and after
Rowett's departure to Stoke City, they have decided on the Chelsea legend Frank
Lampard.

<strong>Frank Lampard’s Net Worth, Salary and Endorsements</strong>

Chelsea legend Frank Lampard has recently taken over as the Chelsea manager. He is a former striker and was known to be a prolific player.

He kick-started his player career with West Ham United in 1994. He enjoyed a fairly decent season with them, however, he considered leaving because of the fans. As it turned out, they often jeered at him, something that he did not appreciate.

Then in 2001, his father, a former West Ham player himself, left due to poor treatment. That was when Frank decided that enough was enough and he left the Hammers for Chelsea FC for £11 million. He would remain with the Blues for more than a decade and was even Player of the Year on three occasions and three league titles.

After leaving Chelsea, there was a massive hullabaloo over his signing with New York City FC, but parent club Manchester City snapped him up before he could head to American shores. Finally, after the Frank Lampard transfer mess was cleared up, he finally got a chance to play for New York City FC.

Finally, he retired at the end of the 2017 season and set his sights on coaching. His first major assignment was Derby County, and he quickly established them as giant killers. For example, in September 2018, Derby stunned Manchester City in the EFL Cup, knocking them out.

In 2019, after <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/maurizio-sarri/">Maurizio Sarri</a> was given the boot, Chelsea held talks with Frank Lampard to take over the mantle. Admittedly though, his season got off to a rocky start when they got thrashed 4-0 by Manchester United. To make matters worse, they were bundled out of the UEFA Super Cup in a penalty shootout against Liverpool.

<strong>Achievements</strong>

In terms of player achievements, he helped the Blues to three Premier League titles, four FA Cup, a UEFA Champions League, a UEFA Europa League and many other accolades. He also has been awarded the Premier League Player of the Season, England Player of the Year.

Frank Lampard also has the record for the most goals as a Chelsea player, with 211. However, as a manager, he has yet to receive any accolades.

<strong>Controversies</strong>

As great a player as he was, Frank Lampard also courted controversy often. In 2014 Lampard was a free agent and signed a two-year contract with New York City FC ahead of the 2015 MLS season.

However, New York City FC's parent club, Manchester City snapped him up for a six-month deal ending in January 2015. Initially reported as a loan, reports emerged on 31 December 2014 that Lampard had signed a short-term contract with the club as a free agent with his MLS contract not to start until the end of his Man City stint.

Then, Frank Lampard extended his stay in Manchester, which peeved off New York City fans to no end. The club was accused of dishonesty for using the player in their promotional material.

On 9 January, Manchester City admitted that Lampard had never signed a two-year contract with New York City FC. Instead, it was a non-binding "commitment" to join the team.

In 2000, Lampard, Rio Ferdinand and <a title="Kieron Dyer" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kieron_Dyer">Kieron Dyer</a> appeared on a sex tape at the holiday resort in Cyprus. A year later, on 23 September 2001, Lampard and three Chelsea players, were fined two weeks wages by the club for their behaviour whilst on a drinking binge on 12 September.

Lampard and the others had abused American tourists at a hotel. The incident came, mere hours after the 11 September attacks. A hotel manager stated: "they were utterly disgusting. They just didn't seem to care about what had happened".
