Oh shit, he's gone!!

No he hasn't. Even if Inter HAVE sent a fax beginning negotiations it doesn't mean anything at all. I would just send a fax back in big bold letters saying "F**K OFF"

Well esk, I hope what you say is right.

I'm also looking forward to Scolari saying that Lamps is staying in the press conference he's about to have

Deco said himself in an interview he wanted to work with Frank and become a very powerful Midfield double, i hope Lampard feels the same.

Inter Milan have made a bid of £7.95 million for Frank Lampard

New Chelsea manager Luiz Felipe Scolari insists Frank Lampard has told him he wants to remain at Stamford Bridge.

The Blues have rejected an official approach from Inter Milan to discuss the transfer of the 30-year-old.

"I was very happy because I asked if he wants to stay and he said 'yes, I will stay at Chelsea'," said Scolari.

But Lampard has just one year left on his current contract and his agent Steve Kutner says the player's future is "completely unresolved".

Talks over a new deal for Lampard have been on-going for two years without success and Chelsea face the prospect of the England international leaving for free next summer if the matter is not resolved.

Inter Milan are keen on capturing Lampard with coach Jose Mourinho, who managed the England international in his spell as Chelsea boss, keen to take him to the San Siro.

"You've got Inter claiming they've made a bid, Chelsea saying that they are not entering into discussions over a transfer and Lampard pretty much saying meet my terms," said BBC football correspondent Jonathan Legard.

"Those terms from what I gather are a four-year deal worth about £150,000-a-week.

"So the battle lines are being drawn up and Inter are still quietly confident that Jose Mourinho will get his man."

But at his first press conference in England since taking charge, Scolari said he envisaged Lampard's long-term future being in south-west London.

"I met him on Monday and told him that I like him very much as a player and as a person and I asked him if he wanted to stay, not only for this season but for longer," added Scolari.

"After we had spoken for 15 minutes, he said he wants to stay and play for Chelsea for many years.

There was an offer and we confirm it

Inter Milan president Massimo Moratti

"I am very happy because I think Chelsea need Lampard and I think he is with us for more than one year."

BBC Sport revealed on Monday that Inter had contacted the Blues over Lampard.

However, a statement on Chelsea's website on Tuesday read: "We have informed Inter that we will not enter into any discussions regarding the transfer."

Despite Chelsea's insistence that they had not received an offer from Inter, the Italian club's president Massimo Moratti claims a bid - reported to be £6.5m - was made.

"This is not true," said Moratti. "There was an offer and we confirm it. However, we don't want to create any big problems.

"They replied that they have no intention of negotiating, as was their right. Now we will see."

Lampard also has an option under Fifa rules to buy out the remaining 12 months of his contract.

Scolari has already signed Portugal midfielder Deco from Barcelona to join the Blues' already considerable midfield resources.

All this worrying for nowt eh...

[Fulham Broadway 16,783]

...and now his agent has alluded to the idea he may be going. Some media are saying the agents had a falling out with Kenyon. Kenyon offering 4 years and they want 5. Inter are prepared to give him five years.

Give him a five year contract you tight fisted cunts, hes deserves it.

If the club are offering him 4 years and he is turning it down then i think he wants to go and is using this as a way of forcing himself out.......

Nice to see you back Greg, and I couldn't agree more. Sheva got a long deal and was not proven in the Prem, Frank is the best midfielder in the Prem and we are agueing over a poxy year ???? UNBELIEVEABLE!!!!!!

..and the offer from Inter seems derisory for a 20 goal a season man, a midfielder at that. He wouldn't last five years tbh, and its only his agent Steve Kunter, who's angling for it...but the club owe it to him...and its not like they cant afford it.

Will PM you Steve

Well after reading all the post, i guess there's nothing to worry about Frank. I'm glad he's saying that he'll stay at Chelsea. But why is it so hard for Chelsea to renew his contract for another few years?? He already said since last years that he'll stay and play for Chelsea.

[EskWeston 696]

I can understand the club not wanting to give a 5 year contract on reportedly £140,000 per week to a 30 year old. It is incredibly high risk, players at that age are more prone to suffer long term injuries and lose their form. I honestly believe that if Frank is turning down a 4 year contract on £140,000 then he wants to leave...
