John Terry has revealed that he would only be tempted back into management if he was offered a role at Chelsea.
Speaking shortly before Graham Potter was sacked by the Blues, the club legend discussed his future while currently working at the Stamford Bridge academy.
“I’m done from a managerial point of view,” he told Stephen Hendry’s Cue Tips.
“The only job I’d come out of my kind of retirement for would be the Chelsea job - to be involved in some capacity with a first-team role.
“I love my role at the minute, working with the younger players. Because I’ve been through that process as a kid myself I’m passing on my knowledge to them, having loads of conversations with them.”
Chelsea have been linked with Julian Nagelsmann and Mauricio Pochettino since dispensing with Potter’s services on the weekend.
Terry, 42, does not plan to undertake a career in management after leaving Aston Villa’s backroom in 2021 for family reasons.
He added: “I want to play golf and have family time. I’ve not really told anyone why I left Villa but it was a family reason, to come back home and be with them.
“I always see myself as a coach in the long-term but there were better coaches than me at Villa, Craig Shakespeare and Richard O'Kelly.
“I went for a couple of managers’ jobs when I left and didn’t get them, got a bit deflated so I came away and I’ve spent a bit more family time.”
