Frank Lampard is reported to be close to agreeing a new long-term contract with Coventry City ahead of the club’s return to the Premier League. According to The Times, Lampard is set to sign a new deal with the Championship club, with the agreement expected to be completed in the lead-up to their long-awaited top-flight return. The Athletic reports the talks are nearing completion for a three-year contract. Lampard, a former England international, is credited with guiding Coventry back to the Premier League after a 25-year absence. The reported agreement would keep him in charge as Coventry prepare for the 2026–27 Premier League season. While the length and timing of the contract are outlined in the reports, neither source provides further terms beyond the duration. The announcement is also described as pending finalisation of the deal. Overall, both outlets present the same core development: Coventry and Lampard are in discussions to extend his stay with the club following promotion.
