Didier Drogba has handed his support towards former Chelsea teammate Frank Lampard following his appointment as the new Derby County manager.

The Rams announced on Thursday that Lampard has agreed a three-year deal with the club.

Lampard called time on his playing career in 2016 and will start his first managerial job with the English Championship club.

In an Instagram post, Drogba wrote: "I might come play for few months just to support my man. All the very best my man, Frank Lampard."
