John Terry, perhaps growing bored of making Tik Toks from his living room, appears set to embark on a new football venture. The former Chelsea centre-back has been working for the Blues’ academy after coaching spells with Aston Villa and Leicester City. But he could be set to take on significantly more responsibility at a club lower down the pyramid.

According to The Sun, Terry is soon to announce his £14m purchase of League Two club Colchester United alongside a consortium. The ex-England captain has reportedly been inspired by the success of Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac at Wrexham, as well as Snoop Dogg’s involvement with Swansea.

“He will bring a real stardust. Everyone involved with Colchester is excited, and the hope is this deal will really put them on the map as they push for promotion. ” Colchester are currently 13th in League Two and look set for a 10th consecutive season in the fourth tier. The U’s spent two years in the Championship from 2006 to 2008 having been promoted from League One under current Wrexham boss Phil Parkinson.
