SAINTS have announced they will travel to Switzerland for a pre-season tour this summer.

The trip was exclusively revealed in the Daily Echo's sports paper The Pink last month.

Saints will fly to Switzerland on Thursday, July 8, and will be based at a resort in Interlaken.

They will play two friendly matches during the trip, on July 13 and 17.

The first is against Swiss top-flight side FC Thun at the Lachen Stadium (kick-off 6pm local time).

As reported yesterday, they will then face French outfit Sochaux at the University Stadium St Leonard, in Fribourg (kick-off 6pm local time).

Saints will then return from the camp on Sunday, July 18.
