The European champion will return to training on Monday, July 15. Given the shortage of first team players due to the participation of many internationals in the Euro Cup (11 Real Madrid players, plus Kroos, who will retire) and the Copa América (5), Real Madrid will return to work alongside Castilla and they will work integrated the first weeks.

Valdebebas will be the preseason headquarters and the tour of the United States will be limited to the three scheduled friendlies. A tour in which several youth players will also be on because, at that point, it is more than possible that several internationals will still be on vacation (they will enjoy a minimum of three weeks of vacation depending on when their commitments end).

Real Madrid's first match in the United States on the Soccer Champions Tour this summer will be on July 31 against AC Milan at Soldier Field Stadium in Chicago. On August 3, at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, a venue with capacity for 82,500 spectators, they will face Barcelona in a new preseason Clásico. Ancelotti's men will close the friendly tour on North American soil on August 6 against Chelsea at the Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte (North Carolina). Eight days later, Real Madrid will play for the first title of the season: the European Super Cup against Atalanta, on August 14.
