​Inter’s pre-season is set to kick off as the Italian champions begin their summer programme with a training camp in Germany. The Nerazzurri will base themselves in Donaueschingen, Baden-Württemberg, from July 16 to July 25, using the time to build fitness, sharpen tactics, and integrate new or returning players ahead of the 2026/27 campaign.

Following their stay in Germany, Inter will head to Asia for a high-profile clash with Manchester City in Hong Kong. The match is set for Saturday, August 1 at 13:30 CEST (19:30 local time), taking place at Kai-Tak Stadium.
