Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas is enjoying some well-earned rest and posted a picture of himself sunbathing off the coast of Formentera on his official Instagram account. 

The 28-year-old was in fine form for the Blues last season, helping them to win the Premier League and league cup double. 

Fabregas joined Chelsea from Barcelona in a £30million deal last summer and notched five goals and 18 assists in his first campaign back in England since leaving Arsenal in 2011.

Fabregas, who is holidaying around the Pityusic Islands with his long-term partner Daniella Semaan and his daughter, is due back in pre-season training with Chelsea later this month.

The couple are currently expecting their second child together. 

Chelsea kick off their pre-season tour of the United States with a trip to New York Red Bulls on July 23, before facing Ligue 1 giants PSG two days later at the Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina.  

Fabregas will then get the chance to play against both of his former clubs, as Chelsea take on Barca in their final pre-season game at the FedEx Field in Washington, D.C. on July 29 ahead of the Community Shield match against Arsenal at Wembley on August 2.
