Lampard opens up on Chelsea departure.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Frank Lampard has opened up on his Chelsea departure and says only winning back-to-back titles would have prevented him from being sacked.<\/p>\n

Chelsea parted ways with club legend Lampard in January, 18 months into his second managerial job, and went on to win the Champions League under successor Thomas Tuchel.<\/p>\n

Lampard finished fourth in the Premier Lea<\/a>gue and reached the FA Cup final in his only full campaign at Stamford Bridge, despite having to operate under a transfer ban that saw him promote a number of youngsters to the first team.<\/p>\n

But the 43-year-old was made to pay for a poor run of form in the middle of last season and was sacked with the club ninth after 19 games.<\/p>\n

Discussing the circumstances surrounding his exit on Gary Neville’s The Overlap YouTube channel, Lampard said: “When I met Bruce [Buck] and Marina [Granovskaia] it was very cordial. I knew what was coming.<\/p>\n

“It is what it is. They are going to move on and<\/a> there’s nothing you can do there. I’ve never been in that position before so it was a bit surreal at the time but when you take the job you understand that that call could come.<\/p>\n

“At Chelsea it probably will come unless you go and win back-to-back titles and that was never going to happen.”<\/p>\n

Lampard was linked with the vacancies at Newcastle, Norwich and Aston Villa in recent weeks but remains out of work approaching the one-year anniversary of his Chelsea exit.<\/p>\n

The Englishman, who previously managed Derby for a season in 2018-19, is ready to return to the dugout but is waiting for the right offer to come up.<\/p>\n

He added: “I want to work. I’ve enjoyed being out of the game with it giving me different perspectives but I’m excited and ready to work.<\/p>\n

“You miss it and I’m waiting for the call. It makes me sound desperate but there has been a few I had after leaving Chelsea and then in the summer, but it just needs to be right.<\/p>\n

“I’m probably in a nice place where I don’t need to get back to work too soon.”<\/p>\n
