Chelsea defender Levi Colwill is happy club legend John Terry is back at the club.

Terry is currently working with the academy.

Colwill told the Daily Mail: "A really big thing for everyone the staff and the players is we always see him up in the canteen.

"When he was walking around at Chelsea when I was growing up, you think "there is the captain". He still has that aura. I can learn so much from him just from a casual conversation.

"This is a young squad. If I pick up that leadership part of him and add it to my own qualities I think I can help out a lot more. I do need to have a conversation with him."

Of his own development, Colwill says: "I see myself as someone that can pass knowledge on, even though I'm so young. I've done a season in the Premier League, played in the Championship, played in finals I've done things. If I can give anyone a bit of advice, I'm going to be there and they can sponge as much as possible from me to make the team better."
