John Terry signs new deal at Chelsea

Chelsea have confirmed that skipper John Terry has signed a new one-year contract extension with the club.

The 33-year-old centre-back had been linked with a summer exit, following reports that manager Jose Mourinho was considering a replacement for the former England international.

 

However, all doubts have been cleared as the Blues hierachy offered a new one-year deal to the veteran defender.

 

"I'm delighted to have signed an extension to my contract with Chelsea taking me into my 20th year with the club," He said."I'd like to thank the fans and club for their continued support, and the manager who was instrumental for me the last season."

 

Terry has made over 600 appearances for the Blues since his debut in 1998.
