The Blues head to Australia as well as France and Ireland on their pre-season tour ahead of the new campaign
Chelsea return to the Asia-Pacific region with a fixture against Perth Glory in Australia to get their preparations for the 2018-19 campaign under way.
The Blues will then face some of Europe's biggest clubs as part of the International Champions' Cup in a number of venues around the continent.
With the World Cup having ended just eight days before their first fixture against Perth, it leaves Chelsea with very little time to fully prepare – though it does give the opportunity to get back into the fold in an energising manner.
