Chelsea Fc Plans to Sign the Derby Midfielder, Max bird after being relieved  of their international barn few months ago.

Lampard is ready to clinch a £4.8million deal for the 19-year-old England youngster to move to Stamford Bridge.

When asked about Bird during his time as the Rams boss, Lampard told reporters: “He stands out as a young man.

“He is very polite with everyone, he has a real desire to improve, and he is a good team-mate.

“Whether it has been for the youth teams or when he has been with the first team, he is an all-rounder.

“I have found him to be a great lad, and our relationship is really good.”
