John Terry has been confirmed as club captain for Aston Villa and is wearing the armband for the first time in a pre-season friendly at Shrewsbury.
The Championship club, whom Terry joined on a free transfer from Chelsea in July, revealed the news via their official Twitter account:
The centre back captained the Blues for 13 years and revealed he rejected a number of lucrative offers from various Premier League clubs as playing against his former club in the top flight didn't sit right with him.
