KEY POINTS:
Chelsea captain John Terry has made it clear he wants to stay at the Premier League soccer club even though talks to extend his contract have come to a standstill.
Terry's is not the only future hanging in the balance at Stamford Bridge with manager Jose Mourinho still unsure as to whether he will be at the club next season.
But as the Londoners chase four trophies in one season, Terry is confident that all doubts surrounding the club will soon be resolved.
"I've said to the club that I want to stay for life -- and it's as simple as that. Negotiations have broken down, which they do throughout contract talks anyway, and I don't know when we'll be speaking again," said Terry, whose existing contract has two years to run.
"It's more important for me to be on the pitch and doing the right things off the pitch with the lads and myself, making sure everybody's mind is right going into the upcoming games. That's my job as Chelsea captain.
"We've all made it clear that we want to stay. We're a tight-knit family and we want to keep it like that for many years. I don't see anyone leaving the club this summer at all."
