Jody Morris (far right) has revealed Frank Lampard nearly secure a massive bargain for ChelseaThe Chelsea board have been left red-faced after club icon Jody Morris revealed they nearly sealed a 'bargain' £60million deal for Arsenal superstar Declan Rice only a few years ago. Because obviously, he was released from Chelsea as a 14-year-old. If you actually spoke to Dec, I don’t think that he would have thought that he should have been released. But while he was there, going into the second season I was on at Lamps all the time going, Dec would be unbelievable for us. I messaged Dec saying would you come back, otherwise there’s no point Lamps going to have the conversations with anybody if Dec is still [not looking to leave].
