Chelsea's South Americans will miss Sydney trip

Chelsea's Copa America players will avoid their post-season trip to Sydney.

The Daily Mail says Chelsea's international players from South America are set to be spared the club's post-season tour to Asia and Australia.

Oscar, Ramires, Willian, Filipe Luis and Juan Cuadrado will be released at the end of the Barclays Premier League season if they are selected to represent their countries at the Copa America tournament in Chile, in June.

Chelsea will travel east after the final game, against Sunderland on May 24, and have confirmed a friendly to be played in Sydney on Tuesday, June 2.

They are also planning to stop on the way and fit in another game in Asia.
