Chelsea will face Paris Saint-Germain, the French team who knocked Jose Mourinho's side out of the Champions League this season, in a pre-season friendly in North Carolina on July 25. Chelsea, 10 points ahead of Arsenal with just four games to play, will also face the New York Red Bulls on July 22 and Spanish giants Barcelona six days later in Washington.

Blues fans will then get to see their side before the Premier League campaign kicks-off with a friendly against Fiorentina at Stamford Bridge on August 5.

All four matches mark Chelsea's participation in this summer's pre-season International Champions Cup with Manchester United, who Mourinho's side will not face.
