Former Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard is the favorite to become the club's next manager.

Lampard is being made the favorite by bookies, who expect Maurizio Sarri to eventually get the sack.

The Chelsea legend is currently managing at Derby County in the Championship, where he has impressed.

Meanwhile, the Blues were humbled 6-0 by Manchester City in the Premier League on Sunday.

It is the type of result that raises the pressure on Sarri in his first season at the club.

Lampard is 2/1 to take the job, with Zinedine Zidane at 7/1. Gianfranco Zole is 8/1, with Diego Simeone at 12/1.
