MIDDLESBROUGH will head to Germany for a second pre-season training camp later this month.

Tony Pulis, whose squad are based in the Austrian Alps this week and play Sturm Graz on Thursday, will take his Boro squad away again for two further July friendlies.

Following the friendly at Spennymoor Town on Tuesday, July 10, Middlesbrough will fly to southern Germany the following Friday.

They will face SV Sandhausen at the Julius Strohmayer Stadion in Mindelheim on Saturday, July 14 (6pm) and a second fixture will be held at the end of the six-day trip, with the opposition and venue to be confirmed.

Middlesbrough are already pencilled in for friendlies against Accrington Stanley (July 21), Rochdale (July 24) Sunderland (July 27) and Hartlepool (July 28).
