Pre-season friendlies: Find out exactly how YOUR club is doing this summer
Keep up to date with all the pre-season friendlies and tours with our comprehensive guide to a busy pre-season schedule
While the Lions, Andy Murray and the England cricket team mean we've not had too bad this summer, the football season is almost among us again.
Teams across the land are back in training now and many have begun their pre-season friendlies.
There's some real glamour ties coming up in the next few weeks and several teams will be jetting off to foreign climbs - partly marketing exercise, but also to get that match fitness up for what promises to be a fantastic new Premier League season.
The Far East seems to be the destination of choice this summer, with no less than seven Premier League teams visiting Asia, including Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Spurs and both the Manchester clubs.
So with that in mind, we've created a comprehensive list of every Premier League club's friendly schedule this summer so you know exactly when and where your side is playing.
