Chelsea will be swapping London for the warmer climates of Australia ahead of the 2018/19 season, after the Blues confirmed plans to return to down under.

The Blues have confirmed they will meet A-League team Perth Glory ahead of the 2018/19 season, with plans for a public training session at the stadium ahead of the match.
