Lampard to stay in charge of Chelsea until end of season

Frank Lampard will continue to be Chelsea’s caretaker manager until the end of the season, Sky Sports News understands.

The club put Lampard at the helm until the summer on April 6 and that will remain the case despite their continued poor form.

Chelsea were beaten at home 2-0 by West London rivals Brentford on Wednesday night - Lampard's fifth defeat from five matches.

The club's process for a new permanent manager remains ongoing - with Mauricio Pochettino the current frontrunner - and the intention is for him to takeover at the end of the season.
