After a month of preparation, the European Champions will play their first friendly game of the pre-season against Modena in Cavezzo (near Modena) at 6pm on Friday. Many players will be missing on both parts but this will be the opportunity for Stoytchev to see 5 of his new signings in action.
“I am very curious to see the team in action – confirmed the coach – We’ve been working with great intensity and this might have been a bit boring for the boys, who have worked hard on their physical fitness without having much possibility to have an idea of the team play. Tomorrow’s game will therefore be the chance to face our first six versus six”.
