Hiddink urges Terry to play on

The Dutch manager says that John Terry should play as long as he loves the game, even if that means leaving Chelsea.

Chelsea interim manager Guus Hiddink has told John Terry to continue playing, even if the captain must leave the club.

The 35-year-old's future at Stamford Bridge remains unclear with his contract set to expire at the end of the season. Hiddink said Terry should extend his playing career if he still enjoyed being part of the action.

"First of all if you love the game, and he loves the game, play as long as possible," the Dutchman said.
