Chelsea legend, John Terry, has reacted to the latest news coming out of the club on Monday afternoon.
Chelsea had announced that the club gave defender Reece James a six-year new deal that would see him remain at Stamford Bridge until 2028.
The Blues, under the leadership of new American owners, made securing the 22-year-old’s long-term future at the west London club one of their priorities.
James, alongside midfielder Mason Mount, were two of the lowest paid members of Chelsea’s first team, clearly not a reflection of their importance on the pitch.
Reacting, Terry, in a tweet via his Twitter handle, hailed Thomas Tuchel’s side for extending James’ contract, adding that Mount is the next in line.
The former England centre-back tweeted: “I love this @ChelseaFC.
“Congratulations @ReeceJames Invest and build the squad, but also secure the futures of our homegrown players @masonmount_10 next.”
