Chelsea youngster Marc Guehi in contact with club legend John Terry

Chelsea youngster Marc Guehi has sought advice from club legend John Terry.

The 19-year-old defender is expected to start for England's U21 side in the key European Championship qualifier against Austria on Tuesday.

And Guehi revealed Terry, now Aston Villa assistant coach, has given him some sound advice.

"John was a great leader, a great defender and someone I definitely look up to," he said.

"I have spoken with him and he trained with us a few times. He told us to always be focused on what you do, communicating at all times and making sure you're concentrated.

"But also that you're having fun, enjoy what you do. He was underrated when it came to playing out with both feet."
