LAMPARD APPOINTED DERBY MANAGER

Frank Lampard has been confirmed as Derby County's new manager, signing a three-year deal with the Championship club. 

Derby had been searching for a new manager following the departure of Gary Rowett to Championship rivals Stoke last week and have opted for the 39-year-old in what is his first managerial role.

Jody Morris is expected to join him as part of his coaching staff. He was previously Chelsea's U18s coach

The former Chelsea, West Ham and England midfielder was interviewed twice by Ipswich earlier this summer, but the Tractor Boys opted to appoint Paul Hurst as their new manager.
