Coventry appoint Frank Lampard as head coach on a two and a half year deal
Jun 18, 2025
"I suppose you could say the sky's the limit here at Coventry, with the nickname being the sky blues and all that."
Okay, breaking news just in and straight from the Coventry City website. They have announced
the appointment of Frank Lampard as their new head coach. He signed a two and a half year contract
with the Sky Blues. He's going to take charge of City for the first time this Saturday against
Cardiff City at the Coventry Building Society Arena. He'll be joined by two support coaches,
new coaches, Joe Edwards and Chris Jones, who, well, he's worked with extensively previously
as well. Coventry City owner and executive chairman Doug King has said this,
I am delighted that Frank Lampard has agreed to join our club as head coach.
Frank cut his teeth in the championship and knows what is needed in this league
to be successful. His experiences thereafter at Chelsea and Everton will ensure he brings to our
talented squad clear understanding of exactly what is needed to succeed at the very top level
that we as a club are striving to reach. And we understand there'll be a press conference held
in the afternoon when fans are going to be able to hear from him
for the first time. Yeah, full coverage on their website, social media. And of course,
we will have plenty more reaction to that news as well that Frank Lampard has been appointed
Coventry City head coach on a two and a half year deal.
