Key games

Real Madrid vs Atletico on Friday, July 26: This will be the first Madrid Derby to take place outside of Europe, making the spectacular MetLife Stadium a befitting venue for this game. Los Blancos could have a few Galacticos by then and could debut them against their city rival.

Juventus v Inter on Wednesday, July 24: Given that Icardi is being linked with a move to Juventus, this could be an explosive encounter for Chinese locals to witness. Cristiano Ronaldo could feature this time around, having missed last summer's edition of the ICC due to his World Cup participation.

Atletico Madrid vs Juventus on Saturday, August 10: This is not exactly the UEFA Champions League but it's still a date between two clubs that faced each other in the Last 16 of the 2018/19 UCL. Collapsing against a Ronaldo hat-trick in Turin wasn't in the plans of Diego Simeone's men who had left La Vecchia Signora toothless at the Wanda Metropolitano. Watch out for Atleti's desire for revenge in Stockholm, Sweden.
