Wolves summer calendar now all set

First session back on the pitch on 22 June.

Die Spieler des VfL Wolfsburg trainieren auf dem Platz.

Although the Green-and-Whites are all currently either on holiday or on international duty, the staff have been busy behind the scenes putting together their pre-season calendar. New head coach Niko Kovac will get to put his players through their paces on the pitch for the first time on 22 June, after they have all spent a couple of days undergoing various performances tests.

In mid-July, Kovac and his squad will head off for an eight-day training camp in Seefeld, Austria. After that, a home friendly against Premier League Brentford has been inked in for Saturday 23 July (kick-off in Wolfsburg at 16:00 CEST) which will be the last real test before the start of the new season. The Wolves will get the serious business under way in the first round of the DFB Cup away to Carl Zeiss Jena, with the match being played over the weekend of 29 July – 1 August (exact date and time still to be confirmed). The Bundesliga then kicks off the following weekend, 5 – 7 August.
