John Terry is joining a HUGE cast of ex-Chelsea players working behind the scenes at Cobham, including an iconic keeper linking Thomas Tuchel and the board, the generational talent working with the kids, and a rather unexpected academy scout!

John Terry has become the latest ex-Chelsea player to head back to the club and take on a role behind the scenes.

Terry - who captained the west London outfit to five Premier League titles, four FA Cups, three League Cups, the Champions League and Europa League before waving goodbye in 2017 - is embarking on a coaching consultancy post in the Blues' academy.

The 41-year-old will not be the only former player employed at Cobham, however, as a number of his old team-mates have already returned to take up coaching, scouting or advisory posts.
