Chelsea optimistic over Lampard recovery
Chelsea manager Roberto Di Matteo says Frank Lampard appears to be making a good recovery from his injury.
The midfielder has been sidelined since suffering a recurrence of the calf problem he originally picked up against Norwich.
His condition will be assessed next week and Di Matteo is optimistic Lampard will soon be back in action.
“I think it will be another seven to 10 days,” said the Blues boss.
“We’ll see how it progresses over the next week or so but I don’t think he is far away.”
