John Terry is set to leave Aston Villa after losing the promotion playoff to Fulham on Saturday.

The Sun says the Chelsea and England legend is set to head a summer exodus of big earners out of the club as the harsh financial reality of the 2-1 play-off final defeat by Fulham begins to bite.

The United States, China, Japan or perhaps a player-manager role is a likely move for the 37-year-old if he decides to dig out his boots again rather than a clipboard.

Any decision will be made when he returns from a much-needed summer break.
