Bournemouth were interested in signing Terry on a loan deal in January and could offer the centre-back a permanent move this summer.

Cherries boss Eddie Howe spoke of his admiration for the former England man earlier this season and in April, after backing Terry to continue at Premier League level, said "Age is not a barrier for me," when asked about the 36-year-old.

Any Chinese club 4/1

Could Terry join the growing number of former Premier League players in making the move to China?

Pulis is set to meet West Brom's Chinese owners next week, where it is reported he will discuss the prospects of a move for Terry.

Any MLS club 5/1

Terry's former England colleagues David Beckham, Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard, Ashley Cole and Jermain Defoe have all had stints in the MLS. Could he follow suit?

Terry reportedly attracted interest from LA Galaxy and New York Red Bulls at the start of this season.

Whether those MLS clubs would be willing to follow up with an offer this summer remains to be seen.

Other contenders

Other clubs among the favourites with Sky Bet to land Terry's signature include, perhaps somewhat surprisingly, Arsenal (11/1), Swansea (12/1) - where Terry would link up with former Chelsea coach Paul Clement - Brighton (14/1) and Portuguese giants Benfica (18/1).
