Everton have appointed former Chelsea boss Frank Lampard as their new manager to succeed Rafa Benitez, with the former England midfielder signing a two-and-a-half-year contract until June 2024, the Premier League club said on Monday.

"I'm very hungry to get started. After speaking to the owner, chairman and the board, I very much felt their passion and ambition. I hope they felt my ambition and how hard I want to work to bring it together," Lampard said in a statement.
