Mourinho: Lampard has potential to succeed in coaching

Chelsea head coach José Mourinho shared his opinion on coaching future of Frank Lampard, Mirror reported.

“It would be nice and easy for me to say, because I love him, that he's going to be a phenomenal manager. It would be very nice for me to say, but I'm not going to say that, and I cannot also say I don't believe he's going to do it, because that's not the way I feel. I feel that he has a potential, I feel that he loves, which is a very important thing, he loves - that's the reason why he is there - and I wish him the best but only time can speak and in a few years we will see,” he said.

Mourinho headed Chelsea from 2004 to 2007 and 2013 to 2015. The 41-year-old Lampard headed the London club this summer.
