Three Chelsea stars made a little boy’s dreams come true as they paid him a surprise visit during their tour of Australia.

The Blues are out in Perth to play a pre-season friendly fixture but took time out of their busy schedule to drop in on four-year-old Hudson McCarthy.

Hudson had emailed a video to Chelsea a few weeks before they headed Down Under and invited the squad for an authentic Aussie barbecue at his home.

Incredibly, his wish was granted by Maurizio Sarri’s team as they arranged a special visit on Sunday evening.

So, it was to his amazement that he was greeted by David Luiz, Tiemoue Bakayoko and Ethan Ampadu when he opened the door.

The trio played football in the back garden as wacky-haired Luiz gave the youngster tips on his free-kick technique.

They then went inside for some traditional Aussie tucker to cap off an unforgettable night for the Chelsea fan.

It will be Sarri’s first match in charge of Chelsea since taking over from his compatriot Antonio Conte.

The Italian has earned the job after impressing with Napoli in Serie A and the Champion League.
