Chelsea are set to offer new contracts to three youngsters.

The London Evening Standard says Chelsea are looking to tie a number of their younger players down to longer contracts.

After manager Frank Lampard is announced as the new boss at Stamford Bridge, the Chelsea hierarchy will immediately turn to renewing a number of contracts.

Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Mason Mount and Reece James are all in line for new deals under Lampard.

Mount was a crucial part of Lampard's set-up at Derby County last season.

James was also on loan at Wigan Athletic last season, making 45 appearances.
