Chelsea coach Steve Holland expects John Terry to sign new deal

Chelsea assistant first-team coach Steve Holland believes that captain John Terry will sign a new contract at Stamford Bridge.

The former England international will come to the end of his current deal in the summer, but Holland has insisted that the club want to keep hold of the defender.

"John has had an outstanding season," Holland told reporters. "We have the best defensive record in the Premier League and he's played in almost all of that and been a major part of it all.

"I know that John wants to stay at Chelsea, and Chelsea want John to stay, so hopefully that situation can be concluded amicably over the next few weeks."

Holland also claimed that the same situation applies to Terry's fellow English teammates Frank Lampard and Ashley Cole.
