Frank Lampard has been named as the new manager of Derby County.
It is the former Chelsea and England midfielder’s first managerial role and he becomes the Rams' seventh appointment in just over three years.
He replaces Gary Rowett after he left to join fellow Championship side Stoke.
Derby finished sixth in the second-tier last season but lost in the play-off semi-finals to Fulham.
Lampard, 39, said: "I've always wanted to manage a club with a big tradition and history like Derby County, so this is a huge opportunity.
"I have spent considerable time discussing the role and the club's objectives with the chairman and board members.
"This is my first job as a manager, but I've worked closely with some of the best coaches in the game and I'm confident in my own abilities and those of the team around me, including the board.
"I know it won't be easy - managing a football team never is - but I'm really looking forward to the challenge ahead."
