UCL: Terry to miss PSG clash with hamstring problem


Chelsea captain John Terry will miss the Blues’ Champions League clash with Paris Saint-Germain after being ruled out with a hamstring problem.

The former England defender trained with his team-mates on Monday morning after limping out of the club’s 5-1 win over Newcastle United on Saturday, but he has not been deemed fit enough to travel to France for the Round of 16 clash.

Terry was replaced by Baba Rahman at Stamford Bridge, the versatile left-back filling in at centre-half with Kurt Zouma also injured.

While the 35-year-old will miss the clash with PSG Oscar has travelled with the squad to Paris.
Oscar failed make the matchday squad for the encounter with the Magpies due to a calf injury, though he may feature against Laurent Blanc’s side.


The meeting at Parc des Princes will be the third time in the last three seasons that the two teams have faced off, with Chelsea progressing in 2014 and PSG emerging triumphant last year.
The other match of the day is between Benfica and Zenit St. Petersburg.
