Fernando Torres returns from his extended break to link up with the Chelsea squad on their tour of the USA.

Spanish striker Fernando Torres has linked up with his Chelsea teammates on their pre-season tour of the USA.

The 28-year-old was granted extended leave by manager Roberto Di Matteo following his run to final of Euro 2012 with Spain.

However, having taken part in a number of fitness sessions with coach Chris Jones back in England, the centre-forward has now joined the Blues, who have two matches of their tour remaining.

Tomorrow's match against a MLS X1 may come too soon for Torres, but he should be available to feature against AC Milan in Miami on Saturday evening.
