Chelsea captain Terry to pay £22k for Stamford Bridge farewell bash

John Terry will reportedly hire out Stamford Bridge for his Chelsea farewell party.

According to the Daily Mail, the Blues skipper will fork out £22,000 to put on the soiree to celebrate his stunning career with the West London club.

Terry has not yet been offered a new contract by the club and it is understood he will be out the door this summer when new manager Antonio Conte takes over.

The 35-year-old will pay for the party package, which includes dressing rooms, match officials, access to the stadium screens and public address system and a barbecue, out of his own pocket

Terry debuted for Chelsea as a 17-year-old back in 1998 and will finish up with the final Premier League game of the season against champions Leicester City on May 15.
