The 35-year-old’s current deal expires this summer and he looked set to miss his Stamford Bridge swansong after receiving a two-game ban for a sending off against Sunderland last week.
Chelsea fans are desperate to see the club legend stay at the club in order for him
have the chance of a proper send-off.
And, in today’s press conference, Guus Hiddink confirmed that the former England captain had been offered a new one-year deal to stay – an option he is ‘considering’.
A club spokesman said:
'Marina Granovskaia and Bruce Buck met with John and his agent this week and offered him a one-year contract extension.
'Obviously coming so late in the season this is a big decision for John and his family, and it is something that they are now considering.'
