After announcing his decision publicly he went on record and stated “I want to be as respectful to the manager and everyone at Aston Villa as I can and, having given my future serious consideration over the summer, I genuinely don’t feel it is fair to move into a new season without being certain of seeing that through.”

“My immediate plan is to spend some quality time with my family and, thereafter, hopefully, take up some invitations to visit clubs and managers around Europe to develop my aim and objective of becoming a manager.”

“It has always been my ambition to move into football management and, providing the right opportunity presents itself, I feel ready to take up such a challenge.”

In his time as a player, he has played for Nottingham Forest for a year following which he spent 20 seasons from 1997 to 2017 and has led the club to Premier League titles and Champions League titles and has been a Chelsea icon for over a decade now.
