Jose Mourinho's Inter Milan confirm Chelsea star Lampard is their top target this summer
Frank Lampard moved closer to an £8million transfer to Inter Milan on Monday night after the Italians confirmed that the Chelsea midfielder is their No 1 target. Chelsea and Lampard's representatives denied a deal had been done when reports first emerged. But Massimo Moratti, Inter's owner and president, says new manager Jose Mourinho wants to sign Lampard and Chelsea's apparent reluctance to object publicly to the comments suggest they may not stand in the way of a player who is 30 on Friday.
In an interview with Corriere dello Sport, Moratti said: 'Lampard? He's our No 1 objective. Mourinho likes Lampard a lot and we all know he's a great player.'
Moratti suggested contact had already been made between the clubs and, although that was news to Chelsea, they are now anticipating an official approach.
Mourinho, meanwhile, has defended Luiz Felipe Scolari's decision to announce his intention to join Chelsea during the European Championship.
He said: 'For me it is completely normal and Portugal boss Scolari has acted in the right way. It was impossible to delay or hide his decision. I wish him the best luck for "my Chelsea". They will always be mine, except if the Champions League draw puts us face to face.'

Not anymore... Had Lampard wanted to buy himself out, he would have done so 15 days after the last Premier League match... Its more than the 15 days already since the league ended so he can't buy himself out now... -
it is not cheap consider he is 30.
lampard want to leave. no desire to play for chelsea.
2 years left on his contract.
high salary wage of over 100,000 /week.
Player above 30 are more injury prone.
base on above ,chelsea would be happy to let him go for 8 -10 million.
