Chelsea boss Frank Lampard insists his squad strong enough

Chelsea boss Frank Lampard is adamant the squad is strong enough, despite their transfer ban.

Lampard insists he does not need to strengthen his squad before the new Premier League season.

The Blues are banned from signing players during the next two transfer windows until the end of January 2020, but Lampard said on his side's pre-season tour in Japan that he was happy with the squad he has got.

“I think I've inherited very good players," the former Derby manager said on Sky Sports. “We can't bring any players in, we know that, this year, but I don't need new players.

“I'm very happy with the squad and determined for us to be successful."
