Chelsea have confirmed that Nigeria international Kenneth Omeruo is in line to make his first-team debut in Saturday's friendly against Crawley Town.

The Red Devils have published on their official webpage The Blues 16-man traveling party to the Checkatrade Stadium.

Omeruo is among the six defenders heading to West Sussex, and it is all but confirmed that he will be given a run out along with World Cup-winning central defender Fikayo Tomori.

One of the poster boys of Chelsea's Academy Ike Ugbo might make his maiden appearance for the first team, having made the squad list.

The 18-year-old prolific striker was observed by manager Antonio Conte in last season's FA Youth Cup final against Manchester City and impressed the Italian.
