Liverpool FC have unveiled their pre-season schedule, featuring high-profile friendlies against Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt and Premier League rivals Newcastle United. The Reds are gearing up for an important 2024/25 campaign under manager Arne Slot.
Frankfurt Test in Late July
The Merseyside club will face Eintracht Frankfurt on 31st July at a neutral venue, providing a stern test against last season's Europa League participants. This match comes just days after Liverpool's USA tour concludes, offering fans their first chance to see the team back on European soil.
Newcastle Clash at Anfield
Jurgen Klopp's former assistant Pep Lijnders will return to Anfield with Newcastle United on 18th August in what promises to be an emotional encounter. The Magpies, now managed by Lijnders, will provide tough opposition just a week before the Premier League kicks off.
Preparation for New Era
These fixtures form part of Liverpool's preparations for Arne Slot's debut season in charge. The Dutch manager will use these games to assess his squad and implement his tactical philosophy before competitive action begins.
The club has confirmed that ticket details for both matches will be announced shortly, with supporters eagerly anticipating their first glimpse of Liverpool's potential new signings and Slot's preferred playing style.
