Chelsea defender Ben Chilwell hands a Blues shirt to NBA star Kevin Durant ahead of Mauricio Pochettino's side clash with Fulham in the USA with the Phoenix Suns man in town to watch Summer Series

Ben Chilwell presented basketball star Kevin Durant with a Chelsea shirt during the club's tour of the United States.

Chelsea are currently in the USA as part of their pre-season tour and are taking on Fulham in the Premier League Summer Series, with Durant in attendance.

Durant was given a new Chelsea home shirt with his name and the No 35 - which he wears for the Phoenix Suns - on the back.

Durant has an interest in football, with his investment company Thirty Five Ventures (which he founded along with business partner Rich Kleiman) having invested in MLS club Philadelphia Union in 2020.
