She said: “During the visit the team will witness specially designed games aimed at the holistic development of children as a tool for HIV/AIDS prevention.”
Madam Doku said that the team will include two players from the senior team.
Four players of the regular Chelsea set up - Michael Essien, Frank Lampard, Joe Cole and Salomon Kalou are presently Ambassadors of Right to Play.
