Chelsea plan to hire extra security for their Champions League trip to PSG.

The Blues face Ligue 1 champions PSG for the second successive season in the Champions League when they go head to head in the last 16 of Europe's premier competition on Tuesday, February 17.

In the wake of last week's Charlie Hebdo terror attacks - during which 12 people were killed - Chelsea will ensure they have heightened security when they cross the Channel.

A source told The Sun: "They're taking no chances. It was almost inevitable after the horrific events.

"Player safety is the club's No 1 priority."
