Aston Villa defender wants to become a manager

Aston Villa defender John Terry has confirmed that he has aspirations to follow former England team mate Steven Gerrard into management, after Gerrard was appointed as the new manager of Scottish side Rangers.

The Mirror reported that John Terry is set to follow once the season is over. The Chelsea legend has played under an array of experienced managers, and now he wants to take what he has learned from each of them, and become a boss.

“I think I have played under some very good managers who have passed on some very good things. Some have passed on things I wouldn’t do or I have made notes on how not to do things,” he said.

“I am on my A licence in the summer and whatever happens then I will be ready to coach and manage with the work in progress in my A licence. I will be prepared whether I decide to carry on playing ,or if I decide to stop. I will be ready to go depending what options I choose.”

Terry’s future depends entirely on whether or not his current club Aston Villa can win promotion to the Premier League.

The Midlands club are getting ready for the Sky Bet Championship Play-Offs, after guaranteeing themselves fourth place, and home advantage in the second leg of the Semi Finals.

John Terry only joined the club on a one year deal, but he says that there is a clause in his contract that will see him sign a new deal should Villa win the Play-Offs.

“It is in my contract if we go up, and fingers crossed and touch wood we do, then I will be staying another year,” he said.
