Chelsea set for major USA pre-season tour change that affects Todd Boehly and Christian Pulisic

Chelsea are set for a massive change to their standard pre-season tour as Todd Boehly and Co set about finalising plans for next term. Thomas Tuchel made his frustrations with last year's tour public and Graham Potter has already admitted that senior players felt the same.

"A lot of travelling, another time zone, a totally different feeling of temperature, high humidity, so very demanding for first training and the players are struggling with the heat," Tuchel told Chelsea's in-house media last summer.

"We give maybe more time and space to drink - more break - but we can't hide from the fact we're in pre-season and we have to, somehow, put kilometres into the legs. From this point, we don't adapt."
