FRANK LAMPARD will be out for "a few weeks" after tearing a
thigh muscle.
The Chelsea midfielder picked up the injury in the Blues' 4-4
thriller with Aston Villa yesterday.
Lampard was taken off after just 26 minutes and went for a scan
today.
A club statement said: "Scans have revealed a tear in Frank
Lampard's right thigh.
"The tear is not in the same leg that Frank injured earlier this
season.
"He will begin his rehabilitation immediately and we hope to have
him back playing within a few weeks."
