John Terry could perform a U-turn in the summer if he decides to continue his playing career by joining another Premier League club.

The 36-year-old has always said he would not sign for an English club other than Chelsea, with Eddie Howe's Bournemouth among those who wanted him in January.

Yet Terry will consider all his options in the summer – including offers from abroad and those that come from mid-table Premier League clubs.

Terry has been a bit-part figure in Antonio Conte's team and is expected to move on this year

Sportsmail understands Terry will not be handed a new one-year extension this summer, when his current Chelsea contract expires.

He is instead expected to be offered the opportunity to coach in the academy in a bid to build up experience.

Terry would also assist with the first team, with Chelsea manager Antonio Conte having always maintained that he has been a huge help this season, despite him not playing regularly in his side.

Yet should he wish to continue competing for another season, Terry and his team will look at the offers on the table from abroad, but also at home.

The former England captain had previously indicated he would not move to another Premier League side.

It remains to be seen whether he would be open to a move to the Far East for a money-spinning spell in the Chinese Super League, with Guangzhou Evergrande among his admirers.

Bournemouth are likely to make another enquiry as they look to add to their defence ahead of next season.

Stoke would take Terry with Mark Hughes a long-standing admirer and are likely to be involved in the summer if the defender is up for grabs.

Terry, though, may have to take a pay-cut if he moves to the Britannia Stadium. He is currently paid £90,000 per week by Chelsea.
