Arsenal hero Ray Parlour can see John Terry taking a Championship manager's job.

Speaking on TalkSport, the former Arsenal midfielder thinks Terry could be a success in the Championship after spending three seasons at Aston Villa as Dean Smith's assistant coach.

"It would have to be somewhere with ambition," Parlour said about Terry's next destination. "You've got to be backed from the board.

"It needs to be a club that wants to go forward, wants to build and an owner to say, 'we'll back you'."

Chelsea great Terry is reportedly planning to take a break to study other coaching styles before thinking about his next position.

"Sometimes it doesn't work for managers," Parlour added. "But if it does then John Terry, with all his experience and medals he's won during his career, it could be brilliant."
