Los Blancos begin the hard work of putting last season behind them with a difficult opening friendly against FCB in the USA
Real Madrid’s pre-season campaign begins on Saturday with an ICC encounter against Bayern Munich in Houston’s NRG Stadium.
Zinedine Zidane’s side are aiming to put a wretched 2018-19 campaign behind them and build towards success in the coming season, and have added a raft of players to their ranks over the course of the summer, including Eden Hazard, Luka Jovic and Ferland Mendy.
Bundesliga champions Bayern, meanwhile, are seeking an improvement after losing out late on to Arsenal on Wednesday, going down 2-1 after Robert Lewandowski drew them back on terms midway through the second half.
