Following the announcement Chelsea chief executive Chris Jurasek told the club’s official website: “It is great to be playing Wrexham once again, following the success of last year’s encounter in Chapel Hill.”

“We look forward to playing in front of our loyal supporters based in California at the Levi’s Stadium, which is sure to create a wonderful atmosphere.”

“We are also really excited to be returning to Atlanta this summer as part of our pre season tour. Mercedes-Benz Stadium is a truly remarkable venue, and we cannot wait to play there again in front of our US fanbase when we come up against Club America.”

Chelsea won the inaugural Premier League Summer Series during last year’s pre season tour of America.
