Pictures: Baba Rahman arrives in the U.S with Chelsea to begin second part of Pre-season

Left back Baba Rahman was included in the 30 man squad for the Blues and touched down in L.A with the entire Chelsea squad.

The 22-year-old defender is hoping for a blissful second season with the dethroned English Champions after joining them last season from Augsburg.

Rahman played in all games for Chelsea in Austria and made the difficult cut to travel with the team to the United States.

Coach Antonio Conte clearly wants to improve the Ghanaian and sees him as a key member of his side going into what is a redemption and rediscovery season for the Blues.

Baba with the other 29 players held a light training session upon their arrival in the United States.
