Chelsea chief executive Ron Gourlay has revealed that he is pleased by how quickly John Terry's contract situation was dealt with following the end of the season.

The 33-year-old Blues captain signed a new one-year deal at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday afternoon.

"Both Chelsea and John have been clear throughout that we wanted his outstanding career at the club to continue, and it is important the matter has been concluded so soon after the end of the season, allowing us to look forward to and plan for 2014-15," Gourlay told the club's official website.
