TERRY DETAIL
Sky sources: John Terry will not have a coaching role at Aston Villa, as part of the contract that he is expected to sign later today.
Terry has agreed a one-year deal, with manager Steve Bruce asking him to focus on playing a full part in the Championship season, and helping the team mount a challenge for promotion.
There are now just one or two minor contractual issues to finalise, we understand, before Terry is confirmed as a Villa player. That confirmation should come within the next 24 hours.
The deal is one of the most lucrative ever signed by a player in the Championship, and could earn the former England captain over £4m if Villa win promotion to the Premier League.
