CSKA Sofia have announced their four opponents during the team's summer preparation period in their Austrian summer camp. The Reds from Sofia will face Czech giants Sparta Prague and Dinamo Zagreb, the club's website has reported.

CSKA's first match during the preparation period, meanwhile, will be a friendly against Zilinia, the team which eliminated Levski from the Uefa tournament last season. The Zilinia match is scheduled for June 29.

The local Austrian team Kerten are so far the fourth side to confirm they will play a sparring match with CSKA on July 1, and team head coach Lyubomir Penev has said that they are keen on including two further matches in their programme. For now, the Sparta Prague game is confirmed to be on July 4, and the Dinamo Zagreb match on July 7.

The Reds will travel to Sankt Veit, Austria, from June 26 until July 10.
