Ahead of the return of the Annual Lunch at Stamford Bridge next month, we are delighted to announce that Frank Lampard, Michael Essien and Jody Morris will be appearing during the afternoon.
The trio of former Blues midfielders of course needs little introduction, with Lampard and Essien having dominated the centre of the park together during some of the club’s great successes, and Morris having preceded the Ghanaian star in an earlier trophy-winning side, and then been part of Lamps’ coaching staff when our all-time leading goalscorer returned to manage the team.
Question and answer sessions will be part of the entertainment during the traditional curtain-raiser to the festive season on Friday 1 December, with the current Chelsea represented by Conor Gallagher and Armando Broja, and other VIP guest to be announced.
The theme of the event is Through the Ages, celebrating Chelsea's illustrious history since 1905 and a host of former players are due to attend. Tickets are on sale for an afternoon of outstanding hospitality, which includes a three-course meal.
Gold packages are sold out but silver packages are still available, providing dining and refreshment.
Money will be raised on the day for the Players’ Trust and the Chelsea Foundation.
