Chelsea will come up against former manager Carlo Ancelotti in their pre-season tour of the US, the club has announced.
The Blues will face off against Ancelotti's Paris Saint-Germain at the Yankee Stadium, New York, on July 22 as part of a four-fixture tour of the States.
The Champions League finalists will go on to take on AC Milan at Miami's Sun Life Stadium on July 28.
Ancelotti was manager of Chelsea for two years from 2009, winning the championship and FA Cup in his first season before being dumped last May.
"Paris St Germain represents a true test for us in our preparations for the new season," said Chelsea chief exec Ron Gourlay. "We know Carlo well and respect the superb job he did for us, and continues to do in France. It should be a fantastic game."
The other two dates on the tour see Chelsea play MLS side Seattle Sounders at CenturyLink Field on July 18 and the MLS All-Stars in Philadelphia on July 25.
