Former Chelsea captain John Terry has announced that he has returned to the club to work in the academy.
Terry is a bonafide Chelsea legend, having won five Premier League titles, five FA Cups, three League Cups, the Champions League and Europa League with the club. He sits third on the Blues’ list of all-time record appearance makers, with 717, and was a near ever-present during the most successful period in the club’s history.
The 42-year-old retired from playing in 2018 and worked under Dean Smith at Aston Villa as assistant head coach for three seasons. He returned to Chelsea in January 2022 in a consultancy role before leaving in April to work under Smith once more at Leicester.
