Wolves manager Julen Lopetegui has opened up on Graham Potter's Chelsea sacking as he prepares to face Frank Lampard on Saturday. The Spaniard has overseen an impressive turnaround since joining the club but won't be in the mood for handing out any welcome home presents for his opposite number.
Lampard was appointed as caretaker manager at Stamford Bridge until the end of the season on Thursday after Potter was dismissed following the 2-0 loss to Aston Villa. His first game in charge comes at the ground in which one his highest moments occured first time round.
In September 2019, in the early days of his reunion with the club, Lampard took a young Chelsea side to Molineux and won 5-2 with academy graduates scoring all of the goals. A little over 12 months later and a late 2-1 defeat at the hands of the same opposition laid the foundation for his eventual downfall.
