Chelsea legend Frank Lampard is being considered for the prestigious role of head coach for the Canada national team. The 45-year-old former midfielder has been without a coaching position since his time as interim coach for Chelsea last summer.
Reports from The Telegraph suggest that Lampard is on the shortlist for the position as Canada continues their search for a manager to lead the team to the 2026 World Cup. This tournament holds significant importance for Canada, as they will be co-hosting with the USA and Mexico.
Currently, Mauro Biello is serving as Canada’s interim head coach, following the departure of John Herdman in 2023. Herdman left his position to take charge of Toronto FC, leaving the door open for a new leader to guide Canada to success on the international stage.
As Lampard awaits the right opportunity to come his way, the possibility of managing overseas remains uncertain. However, the prospect of leading Canada to the World Cup could be an enticing challenge for the experienced coach.
Stay tuned as the search for Canada’s next head coach unfolds, with Lampard emerging as a potential candidate to take on this exciting role.
