John Terry wants new deal….

Chelsea captain, John Terry, has confirmed that he wants to sign a new one-year deal at the club but has admitted that no formal talks have taken place.

Due to the club’s contract policy, Terry will only be offered a 12-month extension due to being over-30, but he is keen to commit to another season at Stamford Bridge and is ready to hold talks with the club whenever they see fit.

The centre-back turned 34 in December, but he is ready to extend his stay in West London after being at the club for 20-years now.

Jose Mourinho confirmed earlier this season that a contract will be offered to Terry, and the skipper is hopeful it can be done soon.

‘The club know my position, hopefully I know theirs and it will get done,’ he said.

‘No talks have happened yet between myself and the club, but we both respect each other’s position. There are more important players here. Hazard’s one.

‘For me, [securing him to a new contract until 2020] was the most important for the club. Without anyone telling me that, I knew that was the first priority for them. Hopefully they’ll be knocking on the door soon.

‘I’ll be happy with one more year and then we’ll see how we go year by year. I’ve not got much choice. The first year [when his last long-term deal was running down] I was maybe a bit nervous and edgy and hoping and knocking on their door myself. But we had a good chat.

‘I know their position and they know mine. I want to stay and hopefully my performances are showing that and they want to keep me.’
