Our men’s first team will face Newcastle United in Korea this summer as part of the 2025 Coupang Play Series.

We previously announced that we’ll be visiting Korea during our pre-season tour of Asia, where we’ll participate in the Coupang Play Series for a third time.

We shall play the Magpies at the Seoul World Cup Stadium on Sunday 3 August with kick-off at 12noon UK (8pm local time).

This will be our fifth visit to Korea, where the Club is regarded as the country’s best-supported overseas team. We have previously taken part in the Coupang Play Series in 2022 and 2024.

As is Club tradition, players and staff will be engaging with our fans, supporting good causes, and celebrating local culture throughout our time in Korea.

We shall be working with AIA, the Club’s Global Principal Partner, as part of its mission to deepen engagement with AIA communities across Asia and promote health and well-being, as well as additional partners in the region such as Alipay+, whose logo will feature on the back of the shirt.

Alongside this, the Club’s Global Football Development coaches will deliver our renowned technical programme for local young players and coach education workshops, showcasing the authentic training methods developed within the Club’s Academy, helping young players to reach their full potential.

Mikey Moore and Reiss-Alexander Russell-Denny are part of the England squad all set to kick-off their UEFA Under-19 Championship campaign in Romania on Saturday.

Forward Mikey, who made 18 appearances in his breakthrough season last term - including a place on the bench for our UEL Final victory against United in Bilbao last month - and midfielder Reiss, who impressed for our Under-21s, are with Will Antwi's squad preparing for England's opening game against Norway at the Ilie Oana Stadium in Ploiesti (3pm UK).

The Young Lions then face Germany on Tuesday (6pm UK) and finally the Netherlands at the Giulesti Stadium on Friday week (20 June, 6pm UK).

There are eight teams in the final tournament and the top two from two groups of four progress to the semi-finals.

Archie Gray started as England kicked-off the defence of their UEFA Under-21s Championship title with a 3-1 win against Czechia in Slovakia on Thursday evening.

The versatile defender/midfielder lined-up at right-back in Lee Carsley's 4-3-3 system and completed a full shift at the DAC Arena in Dunajska Streda.

Goals from Liverpool's Harvey Elliott, Marseille's Jonathan Rowe and Charlie Cresswell of Toulouse - Archie is pictured celebrating with Cresswell, above - saw the Young Lions home. Germany toppled Slovenia 3-0 in the other match in Group B. England take on Slovenia on Sunday (5pm UK).

Next up for our players in the tournament, Wilson Odobert and Mathys Tel's France to take on Georgia in Group C on Saturday (8pm UK). They drew their opener with Portugal.

We are delighted to announce the appointment of Thomas Frank as our new Head Coach on a contract that runs until 2028.

Thomas has extensive experience in English football having joined Brentford in 2016 - since becoming one of the longest-serving current managers in the Premier League. During his time at Brentford he transformed the Club, moving them up from the Championship to an established Premier League side, consistently and significantly outperforming expectations for an extended period of time.

In Thomas we are appointing one of the most progressive and innovative head coaches within the game. He has a proven track record in player and squad development and we look forward to him leading the team as we prepare for the season ahead.

Thomas will be joined from Brentford by Justin Cochrane (First Team Assistant Coach), Chris Haslam (Head of Performance & First Team Assistant Coach) and Joe Newton (First Team Coach Analyst), with Andreas Georgson (First Team Assistant Coach) arriving from Manchester United.

We can announce the departures of Mile Jedinak, Nick Montgomery and Sergio Raimundo from their roles as Assistant Coaches.

We should like to thank them for their contribution to the Club and wish them every success for the future.

Wilson Odobert and Mathys Tel both started as France opened their UEFA Under-21 Championship with a 0-0 draw against Portugal in Slovakia on Wednesday evening.

Lining up as the wide attackers either side of Rennes' Matthis Abline in a 4-3-3, both players had efforts on goal in the Group C encounter, with Mathys forcing a save from Samuel Soares in the second half. Mathys was substituted on 77 minutes, Wilson completed the full match. The pair now prepare to face Georgia on Saturday - Georgia beat Poland 2-1 in Group C's other match this evening.

Archie Gray is in the England squad that kick-off their tournament against Czechia in Group B on Thursday (8pm UK).

The top two teams from four groups of four qualify for the quarter-finals.

Mathys Tel and Wilson Odobert kick-off their UEFA Under-21 Championship campaign in Slovakia on Wednesday - with Archie Gray and England following suit on Thursday.

Mathys and Wilson are in the France squad to take on Portugal in their opener in Group C in Trencin, kicking-off at 8pm UK. Poland and Georgia are also in Group C as the top two teams from the four groups progress to the quarter-finals.

Mathys featured 20 times for us in all competitions last season, scoring three goals, after joining on loan from Bayern Munich in January. Wilson's campaign was hit by a serious hamstring injury that restricted him to one appearance between September and February. He eventually made 21 appearances, also scoring three goals.

The two speedsters are joined in the attacking ranks by Jean-Mattéo Bahoya, the Eintracht Frankfurt forward we faced in the UEL quarter-finals in April.

Meanwhile, Archie is part of the Young Lions squad defending their title and opening their tournament against Czechia in Dunajská Streda on Thursday, also at 8pm UK. England also face Germany and Slovenia in Group B.

Archie enjoyed a memorable first campaign at Spurs, racking up 46 appearances in all competitions, culminating in coming off the bench to help see us home against Manchester United in the UELeague Final - all at the age of 19.

Group schedule in Slovakia

Mikey, Reiss-Alexander set for UEFA Under-19 Championship

Mikey Moore and Reiss-Alexander Russell-Denny are in the England squad for the UEFA Under-19 Championship that begins in Romania on Friday. They kick-off against Norway on Saturday before facing Germany (17 June) and Netherlands (20 June).

Amanda Nilden has been named in the Sweden National Team squad for Euro 2025.

Named in Peter Gerhardsson’s squad for their UEFA Nations League clashes earlier this month, the full-back has maintained her spot in her nation’s final squad for this summer’s major tournament.

The call-up comes with just under a month until Sweden’s opening game of the competition – a Group C with Denmark at Stade de Geneve in Lancy, Switzerland on 4 July.

They will then face Poland four days later at Ullevaal Stadion in Oslo before taking on Germany on 12 July at Stadion Letzigrund in Zurich for their final game of the group phase.

Ahead of the tournament though, Sweden will face Norway in an international friendly on Thursday 26 June at Ullevaal Stadion.

This will be Amanda’s second call-up to a major tournament with her nation, having been involved in Sweden’s Euro squad in 2022 as they reached the semi-final of the competition before losing out to eventual winners England.

Rodrigo Bentancur picked up an assist as Uruguay beat Venezuela 2-0 in the early hours of Wednesday to move within a point of qualifying for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

The assist was trademark Rodrigo, pressing high up and robbing Yangel Herrera of possession 35 yards out. Giogian de Arrascaeta picked up the loose ball, steadied himself and hit a rocket into the top corner to make it 2-0 two minutes into the second half in Montevideo. Earlier, Rodrigo Aguirre headed home from a corner just before half-time.

Rodrigo completed 79 minutes and Uruguay now need a draw from their final two qualifying matches against Peru and Chile in September to secure a place in CONMEBOL's top six qualifying and therefore a place in the finals in USA/Mexico and Canada next summer.

Richarlison did just that with Brazil, the striker off the bench in the second half as Vini Jr's goal was enough to beat Paraguay and secure their place in the 2026 showpiece. Meanwhile, Cuti Romero played a full shift as holders Argentina - who are 10 points clear and already qualified - drew 1-1 with Colombia.

Richarlison came off the bench in the second half as Brazil secured a place at the 2026 FIFA World Cup with a 1-0 win against Paraguay in the early hours of Wednesday.

Richy, who returned to international action for Seleção for the first time since October, 2023, against Ecuador last week, entered the fray on 78 minutes in Sao Paulo.

Vinicius Jr struck the only goal of the game just before half-time, meaning Brazil secure a place in the top six of CONMEBOL qualifying and therefore to book their place in the finals in USA/Mexico and Canada next summer.

Staying in CONMEBOL qualifying, Cuti Romero completed another full shift for Argentina in a 1-1 draw against Colombia in Buenos Aires. The holders secured their place at the finals a long time ago - they are 10 points clear of Ecuador and Brazil at the top of the table.

Meanwhile, Rodrigo Bentancur picked up an assist in Uruguay's 2-0 win against Venezuela - meaning Uruguay are one point away from joining Argentina and Brazil in the finals with two qualifying games remaining against Peru and Chile in September.
