Chelsea, meanwhile, are set to miss out on European qualification altogether next season but interim boss Frank Lampard insists they remain an attractive proposition for potential new signings.
He said: ‘Absolutely I would sign for Chelsea. There are a lot of great things about this club. ‘Form is temporary, quality is permanent’ is a good saying.
‘I can see fantastic intentions to take the club forward. A lot of big clubs go through this process in some way, shape or form, and the more successful you’ve been, the more headlines it gets when you come to that moment.
‘As an individual player definitely I would come here because it’s an incredible club. Sometimes it’s nice to be part of the process that takes a club where you want it to go.
‘I think that’s an enticing thing as well. Rather than being parachuted in to somewhere that’s successful.’
