John Terry

John Terry is an English professional footballer who captains Chelsea FC and the England national team. Born in 1980 he began his career at local side Senrab FC before moving to Chelsea FC at 14. He made his club debut in 1998 and established himself as a first team regular in 2000/1 alongside Marcel Desailly in the centre of defence. He was named club captain by Jose Mourinho in 2004 leading the team to a record breaking number of clean-sheets and points scored. Terry made his England debut in 2003 and cemented his first team place in the 2006 World Cup. Just after the World Cup he became national squad captain under Steve McLaren and was reaffirmed captain by Fabio Capello in 2009.
