He is expected to be in charge for the upcoming game at home to Cardiff on Saturday.

It is the 46-year-old’s first job since leaving an interim role at Chelsea in May 2023.

Coventry are 17th in the table after sacking Mark Robins, who was the longest-serving manager in the EFL before his sudden exit.

Ex-Chelsea and Everton boss Lampard has Championship experience from his time at Derby between 2018 and 2019.
