Holland has emerged as the latest potential destination for this year's pre-season tour. A trip to Ireland had been on the cards but we understand the club is now close to confirming a number of Dutch games.

Other matches set for the summer include a reserve game at Conference club Grays Athletic on Tuesday, 25th July, while Lazio will be at Portman Road on Friday, 28th July for the first of the two senior friendlies agreed when Matteo Sereni moved on three years ago. A reserve team will travel to Cambridge United's Abbey Stadium the following afternoon.

A young Blues side will play a game Framlingham Town on Thursday, 13th July.
