Chelsea Trio Given Extended Break from Pre-Season Tour #

Chelsea Football Club has allowed Cole Palmer, Marc Cucurella, and Conor Gallagher to skip the team’s pre-season tour of the United States. Instead, they will begin training at Cobham in early August. The decision was made due to their involvement with their national teams in the European Championship, with Palmer and Gallagher representing England and Cucurella playing for Spain. The players will have an extra rest period and will join the squad later to avoid fatigue. This decision aligns with the club’s preparations for the upcoming FIFA Club World Cup and allows the trio to have a longer break.
