Goodbye? Chelsea Captain, Terry Shows Off Trophies, Jerseys, Armbands As Season Nears End (Photos)

TERRY-NL
 As reports of his exit from Stamford Bridge at the end of the season increases, Chelsea captain, John Terry showed off his incredible collection of souvenirs with shirts, trophies and England caps all in one room in his Oxshott home – with shirts from Lionel Messi and many more.
During his 18-year professional career John Terry has won almost every honour, played alongside and against the very best in world football and captained his country and the Chelsea veteran showed off his incredible collection of personal memorabilia in an Instagram post on Friday.

Shirts, trophies, caps and more are all perfectly laid out in one room in Terry’s Oxshott home such that if it were a museum, fans would be lining up to gain entry, Daily Mail UK writes.

The British tabloid reports that the list of stars’ strips mounted behind the glass cabinet is impressive enough; it seems the 35-year-old is a fan of post-match shirt swapping as John Terry’s shirt collections include jerseys of Steven Gerrard, Gianluigi Buffon, Arjen Robben, Samuel Eto’o, Alan Shearer, Carles Puyol, Cristiano Ronaldo, Marcel Desailly, Xavi, Paolo Maldini, Frank Lampard, Lionel Messi, Thierry Henry, Diego Maradona, David Beckham, Wayne Rooney, Paul Schioles, Ricardo Carvalho and Michael Owen.
Also on display in the picture were two trophy shelves with replicas of the Premier League, FA Cup and Capital One Cup trophy sitting proudly, as well as Terry’s PFA Players’ Player of the Year award, which he won at the end of the 2004-05 campaign.
Also present in the room are bottles of Man of the Match champagne, his 2007 FA Cup-winning strip, player of the month awards, medals and some of the 78 England caps he won, and the England shirts he has worn.
Terry is currently working to regain his fitness, and Guus Hiddink confirmed he will miss Saturday’s game against Southampton with a hamstring injury.
“He will not be fit. He is still in treatment,” the Dutchman said. “Every now and then he goes in the gym. He is doing exercises there and on the pitch but he is not fit.”
Terry confirmed last month that the club had yet to offer him a new deal and at this rate, he would sadly be leaving for pastures new on a free in the summer.
Terry will keep all options open over his future and wants to do his utmost to aid their progress in the Champions League and FA Cup.
The Chinese transfer window closed on Friday but Sven Goran Eriksson, now coach at Shanghai SIPG, has confirmed his interest and clubs will continue to offer salaries worth around £400,000 a week in a bid to persuade the former England captain to move even in mid season in June.
There remain options in the United Arab Emirates and USA where the lifestyle is perhaps more suited to Terry and his young family but the finance and growth of the Chinese league means it cannot be ruled out at this stage.
