Gomes’ agent, Pini Zahavi, is believed to have held talks with Blues transfer chief, Marina Granovskaia.
The 19-year-old’s current deal with United runs out next month and he has turned down a £30,000-a-week offer.
United remain hopeful of tying the midfielder down to a new contract, but Gomes is demanding regular first-team football, after just six first-team appearances for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side this season.
Lampard remains a massive advocate of promoting youth at Stamford Bridge, with the likes of Mason Mount, Fikayo Tomori and Reece James having all benefited from his philosophy.
Gomes captained England U-19s to World Cup success in 2018 and only last month suggested he wanted to stay at United and win trophies.
