Top 10 Players Chelsea Should Consider as Potential Replacements for Veteran Frank Lampard

Posted by

6. Will Hughes (Derby County)

Derby County’s 17-year-old midfielder has been linked with moves to every big club during the transfer window and he could be a candidate to replace Lampard long-term. The blonde bombshell has the box-to-box energy but perhaps not yet the goalscoring prowess we’ve come to expect of Lampard. One for the future rather than an immediate replacement.

5. Luka Modric (Real Madrid)

Real Madrid’s midfielder has found things tough in Spain since leaving Tottenham and the Premier League behind in the summer. The Croatian was a Chelsea target for consecutive summers prior to heading to the Bernabeu for £33million, but he would well be available on the cheap following his disastrous introduction to La Liga. Modric has been linked with moves to Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea, where he could fill a playmaker role at the heart of the midfielder in Lampard’s absence.
