John Terry And Andy Cole Voted Into 2024 Premier League Hall Of Fame

The pair join Ashley Cole as the 2024 inductees.

21 former players have already been included in the list.

Terry won five Premier League titles as Chelsea captain while Cole as lifted the top flight five times with Manchester United.

"I'm very grateful to have been voted into the Premier League Hall of Fame," Terry said. 

"I'm a player that certainly gave my all whenever I stepped out on the pitch and to be recognised in this way makes me really proud.

"It's great to have joined my former team-mates who have already been inducted, and to be inducted in the same year as Ashley Cole, who was an incredible player and a close friend.

"I was lucky to share a dressing room with so many top players. To captain a club like Chelsea and achieve what we did as a team is so special to me. The Premier League is the best league in the world, which every player hopes to play in, and I'm very proud to have won it five times."

Terry is highest scoring defender in Premier League history with 41 goals.

With 187 goals, Cole is fourth-highest goalscorer in the history of the top flight.

"I'm proud of everything I've achieved in football, which is thanks to my family, my coaches and my team-mates, and being inducted into the Hall of Fame makes me very proud," Cole said.

"Football is a game of ups and downs, but I enjoyed every single minute of my career. My dad wanted me to play cricket, but I said, 'No dad, I think I'm good at football'. Looking back at my career always fills me with great pride and puts a smile on my face.

"The reason you play football and compete at the highest level is to win major honours. It was so, so special for me to win so many trophies and five Premier Leagues. To get my first one was crazy and after that I just wanted to win more."
