FRANK LAMPARD has opened the door for a Chelsea return after Michael Emenalo's shock exit.
Emanelo quit as the Blues technical director after ten years on Monday leaving a vacancy in the backroom staff.
And Lampard — who hung up his boots in February — admitted he would love to return to Stamford Bridge. Lampard said: "I worked with Michael for seven or eight years and his role at the club coincided with the most successful period in Chelsea's history so I think he deserves a lot of credit from that.
"Everyone at Chelsea wishes him well as he moves on. "In terms of myself, I don't know. "I'm a Chelsea person, I'd love to be involved with the club long-term in some way. We'll see."
Lampard has been doing his coaching badges with Chelsea Under-18s boss Jody Morris.
And although keeping tight-lipped on the technical director position, Lampard did say the manager's job would be his dream.
Lampard added: "I need to learn, having played for 20 years doesn't necessarily make you a great manager, so I have to learn the ropes, but I would love to be able to put my experiences as a player.
