Rafael Benitez coy on Frank Lampard's future

Chelsea interim manager Rafael Benitez has refused to comment on speculation linking Frank Lampard with a move away from the club in January.

The midfielder was left out of the Blues' starting lineup for their Premier League clash against Norwich City at Carrow Road on Wednesday.

"We don't talk about personal issues," he told BBC Sport. "That is for Frank and the club.

"I don't pay too much attention because we have to concentrate on the game."

Chelsea defeated Norwich 1-0 and remain third in the league table.
