John Terry sold car after being grabbed by the throat in Chelsea dressing room

John Terry was forced to sell a brand new car after being angrily confronted by Chelsea captain Dennis Wise.

Terry is now established as a club legend at Chelsea, having made 717 appearances for the Blues between 1998 and 2017. But when he first broke through into the side, he was a young defender who looked up to the senior figures in the dressing room.

The 41-year-old has relayed a story in which he was given a crash course in how to conduct himself by Wise, who was by then a veteran and wielded a lot of influence in the squad. "He was club captain at the time. I remember I was in the first team and got a Champions League bonus and I went out and stupidly bought a car with the bonus I was on,” Terry told The Footballers Guide to Football podcast.
