A trip to China is on the agenda as Real Madrid announced their pre-season plans on Tuesday.

The runners up in the Spanish La Liga will begin their pre-season tour in Australia with games against Roma and Manchester City in the city of Melbourne on July 18th and July 24th, before flying to China, reports Xinhua.

There the side which will be taking its first steps under the guidance of new coach Rafa Benitez, will play Inter Milan in the Tianhe Stadium in Guangzhou on July 27, before moving to Shanghai where they take on AC Milan in the Shanghai Stadium on July 30.

Real will then return to Europe to play a four way tournament in Munich. That kicks off with a match against Tottenham Hotspurs on August 4 and with a further game against either Bayern Munich or AC Milan, who play the other semi-final in the tournament.
