Chelsea's Mourinho to make call on Cahill or Zouma

Jose Mourinho is reportedly mulling over a selection call for Chelsea's clash with Paris Saint-Germain.

It is believed that Mourinho is pondering who to play in central defence alongside captain John Terry for the Champions League Round of 16 second leg.

Gary Cahill has occupied the centre-back role for the majority of the season but it appears as though the Portuguese tactician is eyeing the possibility of deploying young French defender Kurt Zouma in that position for the visit of PSG.

Former Saint-Etienne star Zouma impressed in a defensive midfield function in the Capital One Cup win over Tottenham at Wembley on March 1 before playing a similar role in the 1-0 win over West Ham United last week.
