Chelsea manager latest: Frank Lampard and Nuno wanted by Blues if Maurizio Sarri is sacked
Chelsea have identified club legend Frank Lampard and Wolves boss Nuno as replacements for under-fire manager Maurizio Sarri, according to reports.Sarri is facing the sack as his tough debut season with the Blues nears its end.3

Questions continue to be asked about Sarri’s suitability for the Chelsea job

The west Londoners face a real fight to secure a top four finish throughout the remaining weeks of the Premier League campaign, meaning Chelsea’s hopes of qualifying for next season’s Champions League may rest upon winning the Europa League.Chelsea are one of the favourites for Europe’s secondary competition, though success is by no means a guarantee with both Arsenal and Napoli also still in the running. Roman Abramovich is allegedly unwilling to sack Sarri before the end of the season, but failure to secure Chelsea Champions League football for 2019/20 is expected to see the Italian axed in the summer.And, according to The Sun, Chelsea have already identified two potential replacements for Sarri.The Blues were originally keen on bringing Zinedine Zidane to Stamford Bridge, but they have had to look elsewhere since the Frenchman returned to the Real Madrid dugout earlier this month.

Lampard entered the managerial game last summer and is hoping to guide Derby into the Championship play-offs, though a recent wobble has left the Rams one point outside the top six; Lampard’s side do have a game in hand over nearly all the teams above them, however.Nuno has also done fine work since taking charge of Wolves while they were in the second tier.3

Nuno is in the running to be named manager of the year

He guided the Molineux club to the Premier League in real style last season, and currently has Wolves 7th in the top flight, and in an FA Cup semi-final.
