Players that Chelsea left out of its 2024 Pre-season US tour
Chelsea Football Club have confirmed the list of players who travelled to the US for the 2024 Pre-season tour ahead of the new season.
The Blues released a 28-man list on its official website on Monday, July 22, 2024, with some notable names missing out on the flight to the US. Some of the key players Chelsea left out of the tour include, Trevor Chalobah, Djordje Petrovic, Deivid Washington, Cesare Casadei, David Fofana, Bashir Humphreys, Alfie Gilchrist, and, Omari Kellyman.
Most Chelsea supporters have expressed their displeasure via social media as it concerns the club's decision to leave out Chalobah from the squad. However, reports from the club confirm that it was a difficult decision to leave out the player but it was due to the number of the players in that position that forced their hands.
The Blues will fly to Santa Clara ahead of their first pre-season game against Wrexham on Wednesday, July 24, 2024. After facing Wrexham, they will travel to Notre Dame to take on Celtic and then face Club America in Atlanta.
Chelsea's final two fixtures are against the past two Champions League winners, with a game against Manchester City in Columbus followed by a meeting with Real Madrid in Charlotte on Tuesday, August 6, 2024.
