Veteran Chelsea defender John Terry has signed a new one-year deal with the Premier League club.
In an emotional speech after his side’s final league game against Leicester on Sunday, the 35-year-old, who was out of contract in the summer, said he wanted to remain at the club.
“Everyone knows I’m Chelsea through and through,” said the ex-England skipper.
“I am looking forward to next season under the new manager and hopefully we can make it a successful one.”
Chelsea will be managed next season by Italy boss Antonio Conte, who takes over from Guus Hiddink.
Terry has made 703 first-team appearances for the Blues, having started his professional career at Stamford Bridge in 1998.
