Chelsea defender Fikayo Tomori thrived under Frank Lampard during their time at Derby County, and he also impressed last season for Chelsea.

Tomori however found playing time very difficult in the second half of last season and has rarely featured this season as well.

The 23-year-old defender is currently on loan with AC Milan, and he has now sent his wishes to the former Chelsea manager.

“He was my mentor, I had a great time with him,” said Tomori.

“I have always been with him since I was a child. ‘Now, however, I’m at Milan and I’m only focused on Milan.”
