City fail in new Terry bid

03 July 2009 06:57
Chelsea have confirmed that they have rejected a second offer from Manchester City for captain John Terry. Money-rich City made an unsuccessful bid for the England skipper last season and they have again failed in their attempts to bring the centre-back to Eastlands. The size of the offer has not been revealed, but Chelsea insist that Terry is not for sale and that the 28-year-old is totally committed to the cause at Stamford Bridge. A statement on the club's official website said: "We can confirm we have completely rejected an offer from Manchester City for John Terry. "It was made clear to City, for a second time following an approach last season, that we would not entertain any conversation on the subject. "At the time John also reiterated his total commitment to Chelsea. "We would like to make it clear, and will not do so again, that John is not for sale."
