The first pre-season fixture on the horizon is the meeting with Leeds United in Sweden, on 19 July, with the players set to get back into the groove ahead of the squad being announced for the flight to Sweden.
Of course, Matheus Cunha will have the opportunity to get to know his new team-mates, following his transfer from Wolves, while Jonny Evans, Victor Lindelof and Christian Eriksen said their farewells after the Villa game.
