Frank Lampard Set to Become Coventry City Head Coach

The former Chelsea and England midfielder is finalizing a 2½-year deal to lead the struggling Championship club.

Frank Lampard, 46, is in advanced talks to take over as Coventry City's head coach, replacing Mark Robins, who was dismissed earlier this month after nearly eight years in charge.
Lampard's appointment comes as Coventry sit 17th in the Championship, just two points above the relegation zone, following a 2-0 loss to Burnley on Tuesday night.
The move marks Lampard's return to management after an 18-month hiatus, with his last role being an interim stint at Chelsea during the 2022-23 season.
Coventry owner Doug King, under pressure from fans after sacking Robins, emphasized the importance of avoiding relegation and aiming for a Premier League return after 24 years.
Lampard is expected to bring former assistants Joe Edwards and Chris Jones to his coaching staff, resolving prior concerns over backroom staff changes.
