Arrow Terry Axed As England Captain After 'Affair'

Terry Axed As England Captain After 'Affair'



John Terry has been dropped as England football captain following a meeting with the national manager Fabio Capello over his alleged affair, Sky News sources say.

It comes as the woman who the Chelsea skipper reportedly had a relationship with has decided not to sell her story.

Underwear model Vanessa Perroncel was believed to have been offered up to £250,000 by various media organisations to give her view.

She also said she was very sad that Terry has been dropped as England captain.


The father-of-two was axed as the national skipper following a meeting with Capello at Wembley lasting around 12 minutes. Terry has now left the world famous football venue.

Sky correspondent Ian Dovaston said: "I am sure that John Terry thought this was a great possibility, that Fabio Capello would take this view.

"Clearly the manager believes he has been so mired in controversy that he would become a distraction in the build-up to the World Cup.

"The last thing he wants is any distraction as they go into a very important competition."

Capello flew into the UK on Thursday amid continuing speculation that Terry could have to quit his role as the side's skipper just months ahead of this summer's World Cup finals in South Africa.
