Aston Villa and Derby County have been linked with John Terry.
As reported by The Express, Terry is on the hunt for a new club after rejecting Russian Premier League outfit Spartak Moscow this week.
According to The Sun, Villa manager Steve Bruce wants to bring the former England international defender back to Villa Park.
The 37-year-old central defender spent the 2017-18 at Villa in the Championship and is now a free agent.
Derby manager Lampard has said that he will not sign Terry, who is 2/1 favourites to move to the Rams, according to Coral, as reported in The Daily Star.
The former Chelsea and England international midfielder has also praised Terry, comments which will certainly encouraging Villa.
Lampard told The Express: “The bookies don’t always get it right, do they? John is a fantastic leader, a fantastic player and he’s got a lot to offer.
“But we have options in defence, so there’s no more movement from us. John will be great wherever he goes, wherever he chooses or whoever chooses him.”
Good signing for Aston Villa
Terry was one of the best players for Villa last season, and the Englishman’s performances showed that he has still got it.
With Villa not looking very assured at the back at the moment, Terry would be a very good signing for the Villans for the 2018-19 campaign.
