Chelsea boss Frank Lampard won't rule out selling Olivier Giroud in January.

Lampard has acknowledged Giroud comments last week about the prospect of "a change" next month.

The manager stated: "It's still the same, he's part of our squad and we'll see when the window opens if anything happens.

"I know he's commented this week but as I've said before, his professionalism and how he's trained has been spot-on for me.

"It's purely been at times over the course of the season so far my selections and a lot of that has probably been Tammy's form – he's been one of the outstanding strikers in the Premier League in my opinion. That's the way it's been so when January comes, then we can officially start talking about it more."
