Frank Lampard: Former Chelsea boss pulls out of Norwich talks

Frank Lampard has dropped out of the running to replace Daniel Farke as the new Norwich head coach.

The former England international, 43, held talks with Norwich earlier this week.

It is understood he was among a number of candidates, including former Aston Villa boss Dean Smith, the club have spoken to about the post.

Lampard has been out of management since his 18-month spell in charge of Chelsea ended last January.

Norwich are bottom of the Premier League with five points from 11 games, with their next match against Southampton on 20 November.

Farke was dismissed despite victory over Brentford last Saturday, the club's first league win of the campaign.
