Borussia Dortmund set for pre-season training camp in Bad Ragaz in July
By Tushar Bahl
Borussia Dortmund will make the trip to Bad Ragaz, Switzerland for their pre-season training camp ahead of the 2021/22 campaign.
The season may have just ended, but preparations for next season are already taking shape. According to Ruhr Nachrichten, the Borussia Dortmund players will travel to Switzerland once again this summer to prepare for the upcoming season. The training camp in Bad Ragaz will take place from July 23-31. The schedule for the pre-season friendlies is also close to being finalised.
BVB managing director Carsten Cramer told Ruhr Nachrichten that Jakub Błaszczykowski wants to organise a pre-season friendly match between the Black and Yellows and his Wisła Kraków team in Poland, but added that nothing is decided just yet. He also said that it is unlikely that any of the pre-season games will take place in Dortmund, at least not at the Signal Iduna Park.
Borussia Dortmund will then begin their defence of the DFB-Pokal on the following weekend, with the first round of the cup set to kick-start the season. The 2021/22 Bundesliga season will get underway on August 13, and the DFL Supercup clash between BVB and Bayern Munich is scheduled for August 17. The schedule for the upcoming Bundesliga season will be announced on June 25.
