The Champions League winning manager and Blues fan favourite has backed the Derby boss to succeed if he is handed the manager's job in the near future
Former Chelsea boss Roberto Di Matteo has described Frank Lampard as a "great fit" to replace Maurizio Sarri in the Stamford Bridge dugout.
Speaking at the Costa Smeralda Invitational, Di Matteo said: "He's definitely the right man. He's got personality.
“I followed Derby last year and his team plays very good football. He's got all the experience in the world.
"It's a great fit. Whether it's right now or not, only time can tell that.
“You can say it is too early but you have to give people a chance.
“Frank has got all the tools and I think he will make a lot of people happy if he was the next manager."
