Buck told Chelsea TV: "We would like Frank Lampard to stay at Chelsea for the long-term.



"We have offered him what we believe to be a very good new contract.



"As is his right he has decided at the moment not to accept that contract - but there is one year remaining on his current contract and we expect and hope he will honour that contract.



"Even for the course of that year there is still the opportunity for him to complete a new contract because the offer we have made him remains on the table."
