The legendary former Chelsea captain John Terry has revealed that he was pointedly denied any chance of stepping into the senior dugout at Stamford Bridge when the Blues went in search of an interim replacement between Enzo Maresca’s sacking and Liam Rosenior’s appointment.
Terry has been part of Chelsea’s academy setup since the summer of 2023 after previous senior roles as Dean Smith’s assistant manager at Leicester City and Aston Villa. The retired center back has been coy about his individual managerial ambitions but recently revealed that he was “frustrated” to have missed out on the chance to take over his boyhood club, even on a temporary basis.
