The head coach of the London club, who are the champions of the "Premier League", Jose Mourinho, hopes that the team captain John Terry will recover and join the team for the match against "Wigan" on January 13.
Last Thursday, the 26-year-old captain of the England national team underwent a successful operation to heal his persistent back pain.
"This was the last "Premier League" match that J.Terry missed," said coach J.Mourinho before yesterday's 0-0 draw with "Aston Villa". "I think that Arjen Robben and Petr Cech should also return after the match against "Wigan", so our situation would improve significantly."
It is believed that J.Terry will most likely be fully recovered and will represent the England national team, which will face the Spanish team in a friendly match on February 7 at "Old Trafford" stadium in Manchester.
The player has not played since suffering an ankle injury and had to miss the "Chelsea" club's 3-2 victory over Liverpool's "Everton" team on December 17.
In the last four English Premier League matches without J.Terry in defense, "Chelsea" conceded eight goals and are now six points behind the leaders "Man Utd".
