John Terry has been told that this is his final season at Stamford Bridge with Gus Poyet and Luiz Felipe Scolari ready to pounce on the defender.
The 36 year old veteran has been informed that his one year deal will not be extended by the Blues. He is now at the centre of a £16 million tug of war between two former Chelsea men now coaching in China.
Scolari, the boss of champions Guangzhou Evergrande is hoping to sign John Terry who snubbed them 12 months ago.
Another ex-Chelsea man Gus Poyet is ready to break the bank on the other side to land Terry at Shanghai Shenhua.
With that move Terry would earn £11.9m a season after tax – still peanuts to the record-breaking fee Carlos Tevez will bank.
Will John Terry join Oscar in the Chinese Super League in the next campaign?
