London: Rio Ferdinand has said he finds it "impossible to forgive" John Terry in a racism row involving his brother Anton. However, he said he would have been prepared to again play for England alongside former international centre-back partner Terry if given the chance.

Terry was banned for four matches by the Football Association as a result of the incident, having been cleared of any wrongdoing in an earlier court case.

"For me, the biggest idiot will always be John Terry," he said.
