Frank Lampard will go "to the very top" of football management, says his former boss at West Ham and uncle Harry Redknapp.

The 38-year-old former Chelsea and England midfielder, who was given his West Ham debut by Redknapp in 1996, announced his retirement from playing on Thursday

On the possibility of Lampard becoming a manager, Redknapp told Eleanor Oldroyd on 5 live Sport: "I think he'll be fantastic - he knows the game inside out. He's a very clever guy off the pitch.

“If he decides to go down that road he'll go to the very top in management.”
