Chelsea have set off to Abu Dhabi for warm weather training and to play a friendly match against Aston Villa.

They decided to make the most of the World Cup β€˜break’ this month and get some extra training and playing time in for the players who have not gone to the World cup.

Todd Boehly hoping his relationship with West Ham will help them get ahead to sign Declan Rice!

With the absence of those still there though, it looks like a number of academy players have made the journey to make up the numbers in the squad. Goalkeeper Eddie Beach and midfielder Charlie Webster are just two confirmed travelling players, as seen below.
