In the last match of the season, with a red card, and having already forcibly ended his career, John Terry may turn to China. It is precisely this country that his former teammate Demba Ba also suggests he choose.
In the last round, receiving two yellow cards, Terry will have to miss the final round of the Premier League due to disqualification, and the new coach of Chelsea, Antonio Conte, does not plan to offer a new contract to the defender. A possible new step in his English career was considered to be the MLS championship, but due to salary restrictions rules, according to which clubs can only offer larger contracts to three players, American teams are not willing to offer him one of these contracts.
Now there is increasing talk about the Chinese championship, where Terry is trying to attract famous coaches working there. It is reported that both Shanghai SIPG, with Sven-Goran Eriksson as their coach, Guangzhou Evergrande, directed by Luiz Felipe Scolari, and Jiangsu Suning, with former Blues player Dan Petrescu at the helm, offer a contract to the 35-year-old player.
In addition to those offering Terry to choose China, Demba Ba also joined, urging Terry to come to China, where he has been playing since last summer.
"If Eden Hazard called me, I would advise him not to be foolish and stay where he is. However, if John contacted me, I would advise him: 'Get on the next plane and come here. What are you waiting for?' Yes, John would still be one of the best defenders in any European league, so he doesn't have to come here. However, at the age of 35, he no longer has anything to prove to anyone. If he could get one last big contract here, I think it would be the right choice," the striker said.
According to the press, Chinese clubs are ready to tempt Terry with a salary of £12 million per season. The defender's current contract with Chelsea is valid until the first day of July.
