Lampard in Talks for Coventry City Manager Role

Frank Lampard is a leading candidate to become the next manager of Coventry City, following the dismissal of Mark Robins after nearly eight years in charge. Coventry owner Doug King has confirmed that Lampard is one of the high-profile candidates under consideration, with talks reportedly progressing between the two parties. Coventry is currently 17th in the Championship, with the club seeking a new direction under a manager with a strong reputation. Lampard, who has been out of management since his interim role at Chelsea ended in 2023, has prior experience in the Championship, having taken Derby County to the play-offs in the 2018-19 season. His appointment could be finalized during the international break, potentially leading to his first game against Sheffield United on November 23.
