Chelsea boss Frank Lampard admits he's a fan of Lyon striker Moussa Dembele.

However, he insists there's been no internal talks about a move for the Frenchman.

“[Dembele's] a player I know and a player the club know," Lampard said.

“But I'm surprised to see his name pop up so regularly when it's not popping up in my conversations.

“There's quite a few players in the last week I can say the same about.

“He's a player I respect. We're speaking about strengthening goal-scorers – that's where we've been found pretty short in home games recently.

"I don't want to go cut and dried on anybody. He's not one that we're openly talking about.

“If there's a decision then I'll be a big part of that decision."
