27.07.2016 » Real Madrid pre-season schedule 2016-17
Get ready for 2016-17 because Real Madrid are about to step on the pitch to initiate work for the season ahead. This year and due to the fact that the EURO 2016 only finished on July 10, the Merengues won't have that much time to get prepared and agend a lot of friendlies. The new European champions are only going to play 3 games in their pre-season, with all these 3 games taking place in the United States for the International Champions Cup (ICC). Their opponents need no presentation, with PSG coming first (July 27), Chelsea a few days later (July 30) and finally Bayern Munich to wrap things up (August 3). Not all players will be available for these first games though...
Real Madrid - Pre-season 2016-17 tour:
Here we go! It almost seems that last season ended just a few days ago and we're already getting set for a new one. Cristiano Ronaldo is expected to remain on vacations until August 10 and then return to Madrid to resume his knee injury recovery. If everything goes according to planned, Ronaldo should be fit and ready to return to competition in the second week of September.
In the meanwhile, Real Madrid have already started their pre-season works in Canada. The team has been there from July 16 to July 27 and later tonight, they'll face PSG in Colombus, at the Ohio Stadium, for the first game of this new promising season.
