Frank Lampard’s future at Derby County manager has been thrown into doubt following recent cutbacks at the Championship club, according to reports.
Rams owner Mel Morris is aiming to reduce costs while he attempts to sell the club.

Frank Lampard’s Derby have been in and around the top six for most of the season
In his debut season as a manager, Lampard has guided Derby to within a point of the play-offs with a game in hand on sixth-placed Aston Villa.
The Times claim Morris angered Derby players by cancelling a warm-weather training camp in Dubai, which was planned for this month’s international break.
Some members of the promotion-chasing squad had paid for their wives and families to join them for a short holiday after training.
However, a run of just one win in seven Championship games saw Morris pull the plug on the same trip former manager Gary Rowett took his squad on in January 2018.
