Chelsea’s pre-season tour of the United States continues on Thursday as they take on Charlotte FC at the Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, South Carolina.

Thomas Tuchel has claimed he feels refreshed as we close in on the start of the 2022/23 Premier League campaign, which will offer fresh hope that the Blues can compete with England’s best – Liverpool and Man City – this season.

After a slow start to the transfer window at Stamford Bridge, things are really heating up in the first summer of Todd Boehly’s ownership and it looks as though the German coach will be backed significantly.

For the time being, Tuchel will have to make do with the players he has out with him in America and they’ll get another run out in the second of three games stateside on Thursday.

Charlotte will be the more match fit of the two sides at the Bank of America Stadium as it is just past the halfway point in the MLS season, with Thursday’s hosts mid-table in the Eastern Conference.

Even in a friendly, the home side would likely consider a victory a famous scalp so Tuchel’s side may have their work cut out for them.
