John Terry linked with shock £8million PSG move

Paris Saint-Germain are lining up an audacious £8million bid for Chelsea captain John Terry.

PSG boss Carlo Ancelotti is a keen admirer of the 31-year-old from his time at Stamford Bridge.

Sporting director Leonardo said: “Terry is close to Carlo Ancelotti, but that is all.”

PSG – who are bankrolled by the Qatari government - would be able to match Terry’s £160,000-a-week deal and are confident that they can tempt the 31-year-old away from Chelsea.

A central defender is high on Ancelotti’s summer priority list after a £45million move for AC Milan's Thiago Silva fell through.
