Fresh from securing Champions League football for next season, Tottenham will return to North America for their pre-season tour.
Spurs join fellow Premier League sides Manchester United and Liverpool in competing in this year's iteration of International Champions Cup, scheduled to play in a series of high-profile clashes against Roma, Barcelona and AC Milan.
Mauricio Pochettino's side are yet to release news of pre-season friendlies, and so these fixtures will be an invigorating and entertaining effort to get preparations for the upcoming campaign underway.
Goal brings you your complete guide to Spurs' 2018-19 pre-season and Premier League fixtures, with dates, venues and all you need to know about the preparations.

Spurs' pre-season schedule involves some compelling fixtures, clashing with some of the biggest names in European football.
The first match saw Pochettino's side run riot against Italian giants Roma in a 4-1 win in California.
Tottenham then faced La Liga champions Barcelona in Los Angeles, with the Spanish giants taking a win on penalties after a 2-2 draw.
Spurs' final International Champions Cup fixture saw them face off against AC Milan at the US Bank Stadium in Minneapolis – swapping California for the Great Lakes – and turned out to be a winning effort, with Kevin N'Koudou's 47th-minute strike giving the club a 1-0 victory.
Pochettino's side were then subjected to a 4-1 thrashing by Girona in their final pre-season friendly despite Lucas Moura opening the scoring.

Tottenham's 2018-19 transfer activity
Spurs have been very quiet in the transfer window this summer with no new incoming players as of yet, but have recently tied down several key members of the squad and coaching staff with new long-term deals.
The north London side agreed a contract extension with star striker Harry Kane in June, and also penned fresh terms with the likes of Harry Winks, Davinson Sanchez and Michel Vorm. Additionally, they also signed a new deal with manager Mauricio Pochettino which ruled out any then-possibility of him leaving to coach Real Madrid.
