Vanessa Perroncel may break her media silence
 1st February 2010: The woman at the centre of claims surrounding England captain John Terry's alleged affair is considering speaking out, publicist Max Clifford said. Vanessa Perroncel, the ex-partner of Terry's England and former Chelsea team-mate Wayne Bridge, was "overwhelmed" by the disclosures and was now weighing up her options, he told GMTV. Mr Clifford, who visited Ms Perroncel on Sunday night, refused to be drawn on the veracity of allegations but insisted some claims made by the press were incorrect. And he said Ms Perroncel had first to consider the welfare of four-year-old son before she made a decision. "Obviously she's just overwhelmed by what has happened," he said. "She has never spoken to a single journalist and she's all over all the papers with all kinds of allegations, some of which she said were true and some of which she said aren't true. "She basically said 'what do I do? Journalists are knocking down my door, I've got people running round taking photos everywhere I go, I never sought this, I never asked for this, and I've never spoken to anybody'."  Mr Clifford, who has talked her through the implications of speaking out, added: "I went through what could happen, the various permutations if she talked to the media, if she doesn't talk to the media and obviously that's what she's thinking about and deciding what she wants to do in the next day or so."Asked whether there was any truth behind the alleged affair, he replied: "All I'm prepared to say is that she's known John a long time and obviously I think during that time they've become very close friends but anything more than that, I wouldn't want to say at this particular stage. It's really for her to decide what she wants to do." Meanwhile England football boss Fabio Capello is weighing up Terry's future as captain. It is understood the Italian manager will have the final say on whether he can continue to lead the national team and is expected to give his verdict well in advance of England's next match.
