Chelsea boss Frank Lampard admits the England job is a long-term target.

Lampard has been touted as a potential long-term successor to Gareth Southgate as England manager but the 42-year-old was keen to stress his commitment to Chelsea and admits the Three Lions job is not on his mind at the moment.

The Chelsea boss said: "It's certainly not anything that's on my short-term radar. But I'm very patriotic, I loved playing for my country but, at the moment, I'm focused on trying to do my best here in a long-term way, which is all I can think about.

"I appreciate if there was ever an opportunity, later down the line, it's something I would certainly look at but you should never get too far down the line in this job."
