Lampard: Set for Chelsea stay
Frank Lampard has made it clear he would like to stay at Chelsea for the rest of his career.
The England midfielder has not yet managed to agree terms on a new deal and has elected to put contract negotiations on hold.
Jose Mourinho has said he is not worried by Lampard's stance but speculation continues to build about the player's future.
However, Lampard has stressed that he sees his future at Stamford Bridge and is still eager for his contract situation to be resolved soon.
"I would like to make it clear that my intentions are to play and to hopefully have a successful season for Chelsea," he told Sky Sports News.
"Hopefully in the meantime I will get my contract sorted and extend it to keep me at Chelsea for the rest of my career.
"That is important for me because the appreciation I get from the club and the fans especially, I wouldn't want them to think that I was running down my contract.
"I want it sorted.
"I've spoken to the club and made it clear want to stay. They've also expressed a desire for me to stay, so the sooner it happens the better for me."
