First up will be Turkish side Akhisarspor on Wednesday 25 July (5pm KO BST) at Villach Lind Stadion. The team finished 11th in the Turkish Super League last term and ended the campaign on a high by lifting the Turkish Cup in May – their first major trophy.

City will take them on at Stadion Villach Lind. The 2,000-seater venue is home to Austrian side Villacher SV and is located close to the team’s training base for the week.

The Foxes will then face one of their biggest tests of pre-season as they take on Serie A side Udinese on Saturday 28 July (KO 2pm BST) before heading back to England. The Italians, who have boasted a host of international stars over recent years, are regulars in European competitions and will provide some stern opposition as Puel’s side step up their preparations.

That fixture will take place in the 32,000-seater Wörthersee Stadion, which is the home ground of Austrian top-flight side Austria Klagenfurt.

Both fixtures will be shown live in the UK and Thailand on LCFC TV.

Nice of them to announce in advance

That's a nice big "we never wanted you there" message from LCFC to fans.

Attendance in the 32,000 seater will be interesting...

I see the Mercury are really on top of things.

City open their pre-season friendly campaign on Saturday at Notts County, before flying out to Austria on Monday for their week-long camp.

On their return, City face two more games against Valencia at the King Power Stadium on August 1 before a game with Puel's former club Nice, in France, on August 4 before the Premier League campaign opens at Manchester United on August 10.

 

 

So are the coaches to Lille going to be diverted to Nice?

Why not announce this sooner? Unless they've only just been arranged which I would be surprised at.

Southampton have done similar this week - announced two friendlies abroad with no notice.
