Chelsea captain John Terry is set to leave Stamford Bridge at the end of the season when his Chelsea contract runs out.

36-year-old John Terry has revealed he intends to continue playing after leaving Chelsea in the summer.

Crystal Palace manager Sam Allardyce has revealed Terry won’t be joining The Eagles when he leaves Chelsea at the end of the season.

When asked about Terry, Allardyce said: “I’ve got Scott Dann, James Tomkins, Mamadou Sakho, Damien Delaney and Martin Kelly, so actually in central defence we’re looking pretty secure.

“I’m not sure if that’s going to be a position we’ll look at if and when we’re safe and hopefully we are safe by the end of the season.

“But that position looks pretty healthy from the number of the players we have.

“I’m not so sure that John, yes, fantastic player that he is, yes he’d do us a great job, but with those amount of centre-halves at the club I can’t see that happening at the moment.”
