Lampard and the great Chelsea Chinese takeaway


Those rich superclubs from the far east have been making their interest in Chelsea's older generation known again and this time it is Frank Lampard who they hope to lure to China with massive wads of cash.
Lampard could possibly follow in the footsteps of former team-mates Didier Drogba and Nicolas Anelka and finish out his playing days in China whilst getting paid ridiculous amounts of money. Chinese Super League clubs Shanghai Shenhua and Beijing Guoan are reportedly prepared to offer the 34 year old a quite astonishing £250,000 a week. Madness.
It appears that Lampard's time with Chelsea is coming to an end as the club has a policy of signing players over 30 to nothing more than one year extensions so if the midfielder wishes to squeeze a couple more years out of his career than a big money contract from China looks like the most attractive option.
