Reports today are claiming that a former Chelsea player and manager is about to make his return to the game.
Frank Lampard has reportedly been confirmed to become the new Coventry City manager, his first job since his second spell at Stamford Bridge.
The Englishman easily remains a legend of the club, despite not being able to save them from the dire spell they encountered nearly two years ago.
There will be some serious pressure from his new home fans to succeed. They were not amused that Mark Robins was let go from the role.
