John Terry has trained ahead of Chelsea's Champions League last 16 tie with Paris Saint-Germain after suffering a muscular injury at the weekend.

The Blues skipper limped off in the first half of Chelsea's 5-1 Premier League thrashing of Newcastle United following a challenge from Aleksandar Mitrovic, with Guus Hiddink confirming after the game the 35-year-old would undergo a scan at the club's training base in Cobham on Sunday.

Despite Hiddink saying he will not risk Terry at the Parc des Princes even though Kurt Zouma has been ruled out for the rest of the season with a serious knee injury, Standard Sport understands Terry told friends after the match his injury is minor and he remains confident of starting against PSG.

And it now seems the defender could play on Tuesday after Chelsea confirmed Terry took part in training at Cobham alongside Oscar, who missed the win over Newcastle with minor calf injury.

Should Terry feature in the French capital, it will be his 700th appearance for Chelsea.
