Todd Boehly disagrees with Frank Lampard and John Terry on next Chelsea captain decision

Todd Boehly appears to disagree with Frank Lampard and John Terry on who should succeed Cesar Azpilicueta as Chelsea captain. The 33-year-old faces an increasingly uncertain future at Stamford Bridge with his contract set to expire at the end of next season.

Despite having entered the final 18 months of his deal, Azpilicueta looks set to become Graham Potter's third-choice right-back once Malo Gusto returns from Lyon in the summer. The 19-year-old is on loan at the French outfit after signing for the Blues last month in a deal around £26million, plus add-ons.

He is expected to deputise for Reece James, who has suffered a number of injuries which have left Chelsea thin at the back this season. And the England international could even be set to inherit the captain's armband from Azpilicueta - a decision which Lampard and Terry have already given their verdict on.
