New Chelsea manager Antonio Conte has named Ghana duo of Baba Rahman and Christian Atsu in his squad for pre-season training in Austria.

The two will attempt to impress new manager Antonio Conte during the week-long training camp.

Rahman left-back was signed last season from Augsburg and had a bittersweet campaign. Atsu, however, could not break into the first team and was loaned out to Bournemouth and Malaga.

They will try and play above themselves if handed game time against Rapid Vienna on Saturday at the Allianz Stadion, kick-off 5pm UK time.

On Sunday the squad will then head off to Velden, where they will be based for the remainder of the trip.
