John Terry’s shocking Chelsea revelation after signing new contract
JOHN TERRY will miss out on nearly £10million of wages next season, according to reports.
Terry could have earned nearly six times what he will instead be paid by Chelsea
Terry had been in contract limbo with his current Chelsea deal due to expire at the end of the season.
Express Sport understands the 35-year-old held two separate meetings with incoming boss Antonio Conte in the past month but had received no assurances about his future.
Last week, it was revealed that he did have a contract on the table from his current employers but that he needed time to think about it.
The club are thought to have told Terry he will not be a regular in the first team with Gary Cahill and Kurt Zouma expected to be the starting centre-back pairing.
However, Conte is known to play three at the back at times which could present more of an opportunity for Terry to feature.
