INTER MILAN want Frank Lampard to tell Big Phil
Scolari: I’m off. Scolari faces a nightmare start to his reign as
Chelsea boss as the Italian giants step up their bid to lure Lamps
to the San Siro.
A senior Inter source told SunSport: “We will do
whatever is necessary to sign Lampard. "Jose Mourinho has informed
the president he wants Lamps at the club by the time the players
return on July 16. “We are confident we will fulfil the coach’s
wish.”
Inter officials are employing the same kind of
guerrilla tactics Real Madrid have used in their efforts to capture
Manchester United’s Cristiano Ronaldo. Lampard, 30, reported back
for Chelsea’s pre-season yesterday but did not speak one-on-one
with the manager. But Scolari did call a team meeting in which he
vowed to bring trophies to the club next season.
The former Portugal chief remains keen to keep Lampard
even if it is only for the last year of the midfielder’s deal. A
meeting between the two is now scheduled for tomorrow and Inter
will apply pressure on the England man to request a move to
Italy.
