Leyton Orient will face an Italian national under-19 side during their pre-season training tour of Italy.

The young Azzurri’s will be preparing for the European Under-19 championships which commence on July 11.

The friendly will take place on Thursday, July 7 at 2:30pm at Coverciano.

O’s boss Andy Hessenthaler will be hoping the pre-season tour of Italy will have a positive effect on the players ahead of the first day of the 2016/17 season where Orient face Cheltenham Town.
