Maurizio Sarri Opens Door for Chelsea Legend John Terry to Return to the Club in Coaching Role

Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri has let club legend John Terry know that he would welcome his return to Stamford Bridge as a coach.

The former Blues captain spent last season in the Championship with Aston Villa and is currently a free agent. After revealing that he turned down an offer to join Russian side Spartak Moscow, it's still unclear what he intends to do next.

Sarri, who took over from Antonio Conte earlier this year, spoke to reporters ahead of Chelsea's Premier League clash with Cardiff this Saturday and claimed the defender is welcome to join his coaching staff.
