Birmingham City manager Harry Redknapp has confirmed reports that he would like to sign defender John Terry.

The Chelsea legend is leaving Stamford Bridge this summer and is known to have received offers from both domestic clubs and teams abroad as he considers his next move.

It had been suggested that Birmingham were interested in his signature, and Redknapp has admitted that he has made an offer to the centre-back ahead of next season.

The 70-year-old told talkSPORT: "I'd love to have him at the football club. He's a fantastic captain and great leader.

"We've made him a good offer and we have done the best we can. It's up to John now, but we would love him at Birmingham."

Terry has also been linked with fellow West Midlands clubs West Bromwich Albion and Aston Villa, while a switch to Bournemouth remains a possibility.
