A group of 23 Chelsea Women players are travelling to America today for our pre-season tour which will see the Blues competing in the Women’s International Champions Cup.

Emma Hayes and the squad will call Portland home for the next week as they acclimatise ahead of their all-European clash against Lyon on Wednesday, before moving onto their final match against either Portland Thorns, the WICC defending champions, or Mexico’s Monterrey.
