Ex-Chelsea captain, John Terry, has expressed his delight to be “coming home”, as he takes up a part-time consultancy role at the Blues’ academy.
“As well as delivering on-field coaching sessions I will be involved in coaching discussions and mentoring our academy players,” Terry wrote on Twitter.
Terry is expected to “work with our young players and coaching staff in our youth development programme, sharing the vast experience gained from his 20-year playing career and recent spell as an assistant coach at Aston Villa”, an official club statement had indicated.
