​Hudson-Odoi reveals Mount & Tomori vouched for Chelsea boss Lampard

Chelsea youngster Callum Hudson-Odoi admits to asking youngsters Mason Mount and Fikayo Tomoroi about Frank Lampard.

Hudson-Odoi may have known about Lampard the club legend, but he wanted to get more information about him as a manager.

And by speaking with fellow youth team players Mount and Tomoroi, who were on loan at Derby County where Lampard managed last season, Hudson-Odoi learned of Lampard's approach to the game.

He said in an interview with the club's website: "The first thing I asked them was how he is as a manager, what he does and how he works.

"They told me he's very good and obviously a past legend at Chelsea.

"It was good for me to hear from those boys who'd already worked under him that they had enjoyed it so much."
