Guus Hiddink says Chelsea skipper John Terry will be given every opportunity possible to prove his fitness ahead of the second leg of the Blues' Champions League Round of 16 clash with Paris Saint-Germain next month.

The Premier League outfit will try to overturn a 2-1 deficit in the return leg at Stamford Bridge on March 9, but Terry faces a race against the clock to be fit for the clash due to a hamstring problem.

Despite this, Hiddink was adamant he would remain cautious with the 35-year-old and endeavour to make sure he is not rushed back into action too soon.

"If he needs a game we might organise a game, an intense game," Hiddink said.

"Maybe he needs 11 vs 11 at Cobham (Chelsea's training ground) or maybe six versus six or seven versus seven but with intensity.

"It's very tight, it's very tight (whether he will be available).

"If the medical staff says (he can play against Norwich on Tuesday) and John says so, then I'll be careful.

"Because I have the experience in the past with these kind of injuries.

"Someone thinks 'I'm fine, I feel okay', but the demands of the game are a little bit different than training. I prefer to wait, although everyone is knocking on the door, I prefer to wait, especially in relation to the games coming up.

"I don't think (Terry will come back too soon because of his contract situation). We talked. I said 'Hey, let's take our time', not to rush things and nothing to do with the contractual situation.

"I have the experience to wait, maybe even a game longer than everyone thinks."
