Oxford United have announced the itinerary for their second pre-season tour to the United States.
Chris Wilder’s side will play three games during the ten-day trip, which begins on July 23.
They will take on Seacoast United Mariners in Saco, Maine, a day later.
Games in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, follow against Seacoast United Phantoms, on July 27, and a Jim Dedeus XI on July 30.
U’s chairman Kelvin Thomas said: “Going for another year has enabled both coaching staffs to make a few adjustments to improve the trip even further, but the lads will be working hard over there and it is a great chance to let them bond as a team.”
The U’s will return on Wednesday, August 1.
