Victor Moses, Fikayo Tomori Named In Chelsea Asia Tour Squad, Omeruo Dropped (Full List)
Published: July 18, 2017
Allnigeriasoccer.com has been informed that Super Eagles dazzler Victor Moses has been named in Chelsea's squad for their pre-season tour to China and Singapore.
The right wing-back was joined on the plane by England U20 World Cup-winning central defender of Nigerian descent Fikayo Tomori, who has been training with the first team since last week.
As exclusively reported by this website, Kenneth Omeruo is not in the traveling party that will arrive in Asia on Wednesday, and this implies that he is set to be loaned out or sold by the Premier League champions before the close of the summer transfer window.
Antonio Conte's side will tackle Arsenal on Saturday, July 22 in their first match on Asian soil, then face Bayern Munich in the International Champions Cup (July 25) before meeting with Inter Milan in their final fixture four days later.
The Italian manager signed a new two-year contract with Chelsea on Tuesday, before the Blues first team jetted out to Asia.
