Maurizio Sarri has promised to bring the fun back to Chelsea and the early indications are that the Italian is a man of his word.
The new Blues boss will allow a number of his players time off to attend Cesc Fabregas’ wedding celebration on Tuesday evening, according to The Times.
Sarri had intended to cancel days off that had been arranged by Antonio Conte, but has come to a compromise with many of his players invited to the event.
Cesc Fabregas is throwing a party on Tuesday night after marrying Daniella Semaan in May
Fabregas and team-mates landed back on home soil on Tuesday ahead of the celebration
The long-term couple tied the knot in May but are now having a wedding party
Chelsea arrived back in London on Tuesday morning after the 1-0 win over Perth Glory on Monday brought their short pre-season trip to Australia to a successful close.
They will return to the club’s training ground in Cobham for rehab and a warm-down before the wedding party.
Wednesday’s session has been made optional before full training resumes on Thursday.
Fabregas shared a picture of them back on home soil on Tuesday, with the Spaniard posing outside a jet on a runway.
Fabregas’ Chelsea team-mates will be allowed to attend the party by new boss Maurizio Sarri
He was joined by current team-mates Pedro, Marcos Alonso, Ross Barkley, Ethan Ampadu and Davide Zappacosta.
Former team-mate John Terry and his wife Toni were also present.
The Spanish midfielder tied the knot with long-term partner Daniella Semaan in May, just days before the FA Cup final, where Chelsea beat Manchester United.
But Tuesday night’s party comes at a quieter time in the season, with the Blues not back in action until the Community Shield next month.
Fabregas proposed to his 43-year-old Lebanese-born wife Semaan in December last year
They will play Inter Milan at the Allianz Riviera in Nice on Saturday in their latest pre-season friendly.
Lebanese-born Semaan, 43, is 12 years older than her new husband, but that has not stopped romance blossoming and Fabregas proposed in December 2017.
The pair met in Japanese restaurant Nozomi in London’s wealthy Knightsbridge area.
Semaan claims she approached Fabregas’ table to ask for an autograph for her son Joseph, and the pair hit it off.
