Moses, Omeruo join Chelsea for pre-season preparations

Super Eagles duo of Victor Moses and Kenneth Omeruo has rejoined Chelsea for pre-season with Antonio Rudiger ahead of the forthcoming Premier League season.

All three of them were involved in the 2018 FIFA World Cup with Nigeria got a bit unlucky too in finishing third after Croatia and Argentina, while Germany was one of the biggest disappointments as they finish dead last in a group containing Mexico, Sweden, and South Korea.

Rudiger and Moses will have a fight on their hands to convince Maurizio Sarri of their qualities while Omeruo will go out on loan (again) or will finally secure a permanent move somewhere.
