Ashley Cole Lined Up for Chelsea Role Alongside Frank Lampard After Impressing With Derby

Frank Lampard is said to be eager to add Chelsea legend Ashley Cole to his backroom staff at Stamford Bridge, having been impressed with his role with Derby County last season.

Lampard opted to bring Cole to Pride Park for the second half of last season, and the 38-year-old was incredibly influential in helping the Rams reach the Championship playoff final.
