Pre-season: Venues confirmed

The venues for Sunderland AFC’s trio of games in France next month have now been confirmed.

The week-long trip begins when the Black Cats take on FC Stade Nyonnais on Monday 25 July, followed by Dijon FCO on Wednesday 27 July.

Both games will take place at the Stade Camille-Fournier, Évian-les-Bains. The tour concludes with a fixture against Montpellier HSC on Saturday 30 July at the Stade Jacques Forestier in Aix-les-Bains.

The three stadia are located in and around the Lake Geneva area and are neutral venues, not the home stadia of the teams involved. Tickets will be priced at £12 for adults and £6 for under 16s and over 65s.

Added to the three French games, the Black Cats will play Bundesliga giants Borussia Dortmund at the Cashpoint Arena in Austria, on Friday 5 August.

Further ticket details will be announced in due course and Sunderland supporters are advised to visit safc.com for all the latest news and information on pre-season.
