'Announce Lampard!' - Chelsea fans craving only one thing as club post pre-season update

The news of Chelsea being in talks with Frank Lampard has left supporters feeling very excited.

The former midfielder is in talks with the Blues about the vacant head coach vacancy with an appointment expected to be announced sooner rather than later.

While the search for a Maurizio Sarri's replacement continues, Chelsea's players are enjoying the final stages of their summer holidays as they prepare to return to pre-season action.

Many of the players choose to keep their summer activities to themselves as a way of enjoying their time out of the limelight, but a picture posted on the Chelsea Twitter account shows César Azpilicueta enjoying a camel ride.

The picture was captioned, "Good afternoon, Skip", with the club no doubt looking to get some tongue-in-cheek reaction to the image of the club captain.

However it seemed that the Chelsea fans were a little preoccupied with developments on the managerial front.
