John Terry sends X-rated warning to barber prankster after Chelsea captain Reece James pranked

John Terry issued an X-rated warning after a social media video showed Reece James being brutally pranked by his barber. The Chelsea captain turned up for his regular trim at A Star Barbers but things didn’t exactly go to plan. ‘Mr Chelsea’ John Terry issued a strong warning to the barbergetty A Star is famed for cutting the hair of Premier League stars such as Jack Grealish, Phil Foden as well as past players N’Golo Kante and Paul Pogba. But the usually trusted barber tapped into what he felt was an opportune moment to get one over on his star client in a repeat of the stunt he performed on Eden Hazard in November. James sat in the chair awaiting his cut when the barber boldly draped the Blues captain in a cloak containing a Tottenham replica home shirt. It didn’t take long for the England international to catch on to the antics as he immediately ripped the cloak off himself and threw it to the floor in an act that Chelsea fans will certainly approve of. The prank was all taken in good faith as the pair enjoyed a laugh together before James uttered, ‘Oh my days’. But that didn’t signal the end of the drama. The video was later posted on Instagram and was viewed by none other than legendary Chelsea skipper John Terry. And it’s fair to say that the reaction would have been a little different had Terry been the recipient of the prank.

A Star is famed for cutting the hair of Premier League stars such as Jack Grealish, Phil Foden as well as past players N’Golo Kante and Paul Pogba.

But the usually trusted barber tapped into what he felt was an opportune moment to get one over on his star client in a repeat of the stunt he performed on Eden Hazard in November.

James sat in the chair awaiting his cut when the barber boldly draped the Blues captain in a cloak containing a Tottenham replica home shirt.

It didn’t take long for the England international to catch on to the antics as he immediately ripped the cloak off himself and threw it to the floor in an act that Chelsea fans will certainly approve of.

The prank was all taken in good faith as the pair enjoyed a laugh together before James uttered, ‘Oh my days’.

But that didn’t signal the end of the drama.

The video was later posted on Instagram and was viewed by none other than legendary Chelsea skipper John Terry.

And it’s fair to say that the reaction would have been a little different had Terry been the recipient of the prank.

Terry replied to A Star Barbers with: “If you f****** try this with me I will throw you and that s*** shirt out the shop.”

Chelsea fans immediately flocked to the video clip in support of Terry’s comment.
