Chelsea striker Fernando Torres has reportedly featured in the club's new kit launch which featured the players getting messy in plaster.

The ad with the slogan 'Forever Blue' saw players Torres, Oscar, Eden Hazard, Gary Cahill and Petr Cech, being set in plaster this time for Chelsea's new kit launch with Adidas.

Last year, Chelsea players had allowed themselves to be submerged in blue paint, although this time the would be seen in plaster and speculations are that club boss Jose Mourinho has given the narration for the ad, Metro.co.uk reported.

The main features of the new kit are the faded stripes, while there is no white trim beyond the Adidas trademarks down the sleeves, although it does not deviate hugely from the current shirt worn by Mourinho's squad.

Even though the earlier reports speculated that Torres is in Mourinho's list of players to be sold off this summer, the current development hints at a prolonged future for the Spaniard.
