Chelsea captain John Terry is set to become the world's highest paid player.
Billionaire Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich wants to reward his skipper with a five-year deal topping £130,000 a week.
That will see Terry take pole position in the pay league from new signing Michael Ballack, who agreed a £20million, three-year contract last week.
Talks will start as soon as defender Terry - who became a dad to twins last week - returns from England duty at the World Cup.
