Profile
A dynamic player who possesses a fine range of passing and deadly shooting, Frank Lampard has developed into one of the finest exponents of the midfield player's art.
National team
Lampard made his international debut in October 1999, but missed out on selection for UEFA EURO 2000™ and the 2002 FIFA World Cup. The midfield player bounced back to feature in UEFA EURO 2004™ qualifying before making the starting lineup in the finals. He scored against France and also got the extra-time equaliser in the quarter-final defeat by Portugal. England fans' player of the year in 2004, his position in the midfield is currently unquestioned.
Club
Like team-mate Joe Cole, he is a graduate of the academy at West Ham United FC. Lampard made his Premiership debut in 1996 and by 1997/98 - after a spell on loan at Swansea City FC - was a regular. Ever present in 1998/99, he then played 64 matches over the next two seasons to take his tally at Upton Park to 148, scoring 23 goals. Alongside former team-mate Rio Ferdinand, he was a UEFA Intertoto Cup winner in 1999.
2001: Joined Chelsea FC for €16m and missed just one game in a debut season which saw him score five goals in 37 Premiership matches. For the second time in his career, Lampard did not miss a game in 2002/03, scoring six times as Chelsea finished fourth to reach the UEFA Champions League and enjoyed an even better time the following campaign, being consistently Chelsea's best player as they reached the Champions League semi-final and finished second in the Premiership.
2004/05: Lampard's dynamism at the heart of the Chelsea midfield drove the team on to win the Premiership title by a 12-point margin. He played in every one of the club's 38 Premiership games and scored a remarkable 19 goals in all competitions, including four in the Champions League. Was voted Football Writers' Player of the Year.
