BREAKING: Frank Lampard got his first managerial job (Video)

Former Chelsea and England midfielder Frank Lampard has been named as Derby County’s new manager after signing a three-year deal at Pride Park. Lampard has been looking to take his first step into management. Derby County have been without a manager since Gary Rowett left to take over at Stoke City last week after the club lost to Fulham in the Championship play-off semi-finals. “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. “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. “This is my first job as a manager, but I’ve worked closely with some of the best coaches in the game and I’m confident in my own abilities and those of the team around me, including the board. I know it won’t be easy – managing a football team never is – but I’m really looking forward to the challenge ahead,” Lampard told Derby’s website. Lampard made more than 600 appearances in the Premier League and won the title on three occasions. He also won the Champions League, the Europa League, four FA Cups and two League Cups but he has had no previous managerial experience. https://twitter.com/dcfcofficial/status/1002097349966073859
