The footballer himself did not comment on the situation today.

He informed his decision in Instagram.

"After thinking, I decided to refuse" Spartacus ". I want to thank the club and wish him and his supporters a good season. This is an ambitious club and I was very impressed by their professionalism. However, after evaluating this step with my family, we decided that NOW is the wrong decision for us. Good luck, "Spartacus" "- wrote Terry.
