Chelsea chairman Bruce Buck said: “We are very pleased to be able to confirm the details of this first match we have announced in our pre-season schedule, with more dates to come in the forthcoming weeks.
“It is going to be an exciting summer for the club and we are looking forward to working closely with our value partners at The Yokohama Rubber Company to make this a visit to remember.

The venue also hosted the 2002 World Cup final, in which Brazil beat Germany, and will also stage the 2019 Rugby Union World Cup final.
