DBasia.news – Former Chelsea captain John Terry announced that he cancels to join Russian club, Spartak Moscow. The reason for his cancelation is the family consideration.
Previously, Terry is related to Spartak Moscow. Moreover, the former England national team captain has no club since his contract with Aston Villa ended.
The condition made him approach Spartak Moscow. Moreover, the Russian League is the new competition favored by senior players.
Recently, Italian midfielder Claudio Marchisio joined another Russian club. Marchisio chose Zenit St. Petersburg.
Consequently, Terry’s issue to move to Russia is getting big. Moreover, the former Chelsea defender has conducted a medical review recently.
Unfortunately, Terry canceled his plan to join Spartak Moscow. The player who supported Chelsea until 2017 refused the offer from the Russian club.
“After considerable thought, I have decided to decline a contract offer from Spartak Moscow,” he wrote in a post on his official Instagram account.
“I would like to take the opportunity to thank Spartak and wish them and their supporters well for the rest of the season. They are an ambitious club and I have been very impressed with their professionalism.”
“But after assessing this move with my family, we’ve decided this is not the right move for ourselves at this time. Good luck Spartak,” Terry continued.
The failure to recruit former Chelsea captain means Spartak Moscow must find a new defender. Apparently, their prominent defender, Samuel Gigot, had a severe injury.
