Earlier in the month Inter boss Jose Mourinho expressed his interest in being reunited with his former mid field ace Frank Lampard. Inter have put in an undisclosed bid for the England international in an attempt to take him to the San Siro. Lampard who has spent all of his career highlights at Chelsea has said that he would love to be reunited with his former boss. Lampard’s mind has gone a little wayward of late as the contract renewal that Chelsea have offered him is not what he expected. Lampard is moving into the later part of his career now and Chelsea have offered him a 4 year contract to continue but he wants longer. He is said to be unhappy with the current 4 year £150,000 a year terms available to him.Jose Mourinho has always been a player’s choice manager. When his exit from Chelsea was announced last season it caused an uproar with his players. Players like Ivory Coast international Didier Drogba made it clear they were unhappy with the decision and expressed interest in their own transfers.Newly appointed manager Luiz Felipe Scolari has said that Frank Lampard is not for sale. Maurinho has said that for the time being it is unlikely that Inter will be able to claim Lampard and that the easier move would be to wait until the player has served out his final year. Inter would have the option to buy out the remaining 12 month period if they so wanted to. It is expected that he will make his next move during the January transfer window.
