Former Chelsea goalkeeper Asmir Begovic urges John Terry to join him at Bournemouth
- John Terry has been a free agent since leaving Chelsea at the end of last season
- Terry is keen to continue his career but is also yet to rule out retirement
- Aston Villa and Bournemouth have both been linked with the veteran defender
- Asmir Begovic says it would be 'great' to reunite with Terry on the south coast
Asmir Begovic has urged his former Chelsea team-mate John Terry to consider a move to Bournemouth this summer.
Terry is now a free agent after leaving the Blues at the end of last season and is yet to confirm his next move.
The 36-year-old has been heavily linked with Championship club Aston Villa but Begovic, who left Chelsea to join Bournemouth for £10million in July, would love to reunite with the former England captain at the Vitality Stadium.

'If he fancies Bournemouth it would be great to have him there,' Begovic said, speaking at the Asmir Begovic Foundation Golf Classic.
'He's a great player and a great guy as well, so from that point of view it would be really, really good.
'He's obviously the best defender ever in the Premier League. He's a legend at Chelsea and he deserves the right to make the right decision for himself and his family.

'I hope he does whatever is right for him and he's happy with the decision, and I wish him all the best for the future.'
Terry has not ruled out retirement but is keen to continue his career, should he receive an appropriate offer.
Aston Villa have emerged as serious contenders to land the veteran defender's signature, with manager Steve Bruce hoping to add some much-needed experience to his back line as he attempts to guide the club back to the Premier League.
Terry and Bruce played a round of golf together in Portugal last week but the former Chelsea man is believed to be still weighing up his options.
