Chelsea captain John Terry is a doubt for Sunday’s derby at rivals Tottenham after being stretchered off during the 4-0 win against Maccabi Tel Aviv in the Champions League.

Terry suffered an ankle injury in the second half after appearing to land awkwardly and was replaced by Kurt Zouma. [phone][/phone]

The former England defender’s condition is being assessed but Blues boss Jose Mourinho does not expect Terry to be available at White Hart Lane.

“John is a doubt for the weekend but I don’t want to speak without tests,” Mourinho said.

“My medical department is really good and John is a special guy with a special desire to recover, but I don’t believe he will be able to play.”

Meanwhile, Ramires missed Tuesday’s game after picking up a muscular injury in a training session ahead of the match.
