John Terry is a Chelsea and England legend, who captained both. He played over 600 times for club and country winning, 17 trophies, including five Premier League titles and a Champions League. He moved into coaching after retiring as Assistant Manager of Aston Villa. He has also worked with media outlets such as Sky Sports News. Working as a speaker John is the perfect choice for any audience interested in sport and would make a good choice for any corporate event looking into leadership and success, given what he achieved during his career.
He made his debut in 1998 and helped the club win the FA Cup the following year. His influence grew as he was named Chelsea’s Player of the Year in 2001. He was made captain in 2004 and won the Premier League and League Cup double that season as the side set a record for the least goals conceded and most clean sheets in a Premier League Season. He was named PFA Player’s Player of the Year and best defender in the Champions League that year. The Blues defended their Premier League Crown the following year as John became England Captain and the only Englishmen named in the FIFA World Cup All-Stars Side. He captained Chelsea to the FA Cup and League Cup in 2007, becoming the first Captain to lift the FA Cup at the New Wembley. He would go on to add a further League Cup and three FA Cups as Blue’s captain along with three more Premier League crowns. In Europe, he was helped Chelsea reach the 2011/12 Champions League final and despite missing the final due to suspension he lifted the trophy after the side beat Bayern Munich on penalties. He then lifted the Europa League the following season but again missed the final, this time due to injury. He called time on his career at Stanford Bridge in 2017, leaving as Chelsea’s most successful captain and highest scoring defender.
He moved to Aston Villa at the start of the 2017/18 season and played 32 games as the side reached the Championship Play-off final before retiring from professional football. He returned to Villa Park as Assistant Manager and helped the club achieve promotion and establish itself in the Premier League. Away from coaching John has also occupied himself with media appearances, working as a pundit for Sky Sports and the BBC.
Working as a speaker John provides a unique insight into life as one of England’s greatest ever defenders that will hold the interest of any audience. He is also a fantastic choice for any corporate audience looking for a speaker on leadership and what it takes to achieve at the highest level.
