Aston Villa captain John Terry will face no further action over an incident in his final game for Chelsea.

The former England man was substituted in the 26th minute - to match his shirt number - in his final game for the London club.

But the Football Association launched an investigation after a number of bets were placed on the substitution taking place.

The FA’s integrity department has now decided neither Chelsea nor Terry have any case to answer.

The defender - who moved to B6 on a free over the summer - will make his competitive Villa debut when they face Hull City on the opening day of the Championship season on Saturday (August 5th).
