1/5
Vaishali Bhardwaj15 February 2016

Chelsea were handed a major blow on Monday after captain John Terry was ruled out of the club's Champions League last 16 tie with Paris Saint-Germain with a hamstring injury.

The Blues skipper sustained the problem in the first half of Chelsea's 5-1 thrashing of Newcastle United on Saturday and underwent a scan on the issue a day later before taking part in training with his teammates at Cobham today.

But, after failing to recover from his injury in time, Terry will have to wait to make his 700th appearance for Chelsea as he works on his injury in London while the Blues travel to the French capital to take on PSG in the first leg of their last 16 clash.

The news will come as a blow to Hiddink as Kurt Zouma is already sidelined for the rest of the season with a serious knee injury.

But what are the options now available to Hiddink for Chelsea's clash with PSG at the Parc des Princes? Scroll through our gallery above to see which players the Dutchman could utilise at the heart of the Blues' back line for their Champions League game in the French capital.
