Coventry owner Doug King has confirmed that Frank Lampard has applied for the club’s vacant manager’s job after Mark Robins’ sacking.
Robins was the longest-serving manager in the English Football League until he was dismissed from his role on Thursday, and Lampard has emerged as a candidate to replace him.
“We’ve received a huge amount of CVs from high-quality people, of which Frank is one,” King told Sky Sports. “We’ve done nothing on that process … but clearly we’re in the international break, we’ll be assessing everything. We’ll work out who’s going to make the shortlist and we’ll go from there.”
Lampard has not coached since a brief interim spell at Chelsea for the club’s final 11 matches of the 2022-23 season. He was previously Chelsea’s permanent manager between July 2019 and January 2021.
He has also had managerial spells at Derby County and Everton.
