Chelsea have announced that the team will travel to Australia to take part in a friendly against A-League side Sydney FC at the ANZ Stadium this summer.
The Blues will play in the country for the first time in more than 40 years when they take to the pitch on June 2.
Chelsea chairman Bruce Buck told the club's official website: "We are delighted to be returning to Australia for the first time in many years and look forward to playing at the iconic ANZ Stadium.
"We can't wait to see our many fans there as we show our appreciation for their long-distance support of the club. We are sure the team will put on an entertaining display as we end what has already been a memorable campaign."
Manager Jose Mourinho added: "We are very pleased we are coming to Sydney at the end of our season, for the first time in more than 40 years, and we hope our Australian fans can come and watch us play."
The West London outfit are expected to head Down Under as Premier League champions as they have a 10-point lead at the top of the table with five games left to play.
