Chelsea boss Frank Lampard has hinted Chelsea youngster Lewis Hall has a chance of playing against Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

The 18-year-old has been prevented from heading away on U20 World Cup duty with England following injuries to Ben Chilwell and Marc Cucurella.

Lampard said: “Lewis has a chance. I was tempted to put him on last week but the experience of Azpi was more suitable. He is a very good player, a really talented player.

“He needs to come out of himself a bit more. I have been really impressed and he is in the running for the last four games. He wanted to play for his country but that is a good thing. But also he has come through this academy and is desperate to play.”
