Everton's pre-season fixtures in full for 2021/22 as Rafa Benitez examines his squad

Everton are moving ever closer to the start of the 2021/22 season, and their pre-season preparations will only ramp up over the next few weeks.

The Blues begin their Premier League campaign at home to Southampton on August 14, in what will be a fresh start at Goodison Park.

Rafa Benitez will be in charge this season after the sudden departure of Carlo Ancelotti for Real Madrid earlier in the summer.

The former Newcastle and Liverpool boss will be looking to get Everton to improve on their 10th place finish from last term.

Benitez is already working with the Everton players at Finch Farm, as pre-season training gets underway.

No new faces have arrived as of yet, with Benitez still running the rule over his squad and which areas he feels some reinforcements.

A pre-season tour of the United States has already been confirmed for later this month, as Benitez looks to get his squad ready for a tough season ahead.

Everton will have two matches across the other side of the Atlantic, before returning to England for another final friendly ahead of the Premier League season.

Everton’s pre-season fixtures:

July 26 - Millonarios @ Camping World Stadium, Florida

July 29 - Arsenal or Inter Milan @ Camping World Stadium, Florida

August 7 - Manchester United @ Old Trafford
