BREAKING!! Frank Lampard Agrees To Be Everton New Manager
Frank Lampard has finalised a two-and-a-half-year deal to become Everton’s new manager and is now putting his backroom staff in place and working on new signings.
He completed the formalities of his contract on Sunday.
The 43-year-old replaces Rafael Benitez, who left the club earlier this month after one win in 13 games.
Lampard was offered the job after Everton’s hierarchy conducted a final round of interviews on Friday.
The interviews included Lampard, Portuguese coach Vitor Pereira and current caretaker manager Duncan Ferguson.
An official announcement on Lampard is expected from Everton on Monday.
Lampard is close to securing his first signing after Everton agreed a deal to sign Manchester United midfielder Donny van de Beek on loan until the end of the season and more activity may follow before the transfer window closes on Monday.
