Frank Lampard breaks his silence on the links to him becoming Russell Martin’s replacement at Rangers.

Martin was sacked 12 days ago after only winning five of his 17 games in charge and leaves the Light Blues eighth in the Scottish Premiership table.

The Gers have still yet to find a replacement but are closing in on Shanghai Port boss Kevin Muscat.

Lampard has been linked to the Ibrox hotseat and was close to getting the gig two years ago but Philippe Clement beat him to it.

The Englishman has got Coventry City flying right now as they’re currently top of the English Championship and unbeaten.

Speaking to the press before the Sky Blues’ league fixture against Blackburn Rovers, the 47-year-old was asked about the vacancy at the Govan club and expressed his love for the Glasgow giants:

“I’m very, very ambitious and when I say that I’m talking about being here. I want us to be better. I think we’ve improved a lot. Everyone in the building’s work really hard to get to where we are.

“There’s a real joy in that when you come to work and you have that feeling and I want to continue that and drive it and drive it.

“I’m going to drive up until January and I’m going to drive until the end of the season. I’m very happy here, so I feel nothing of it.
