Kaizer Chiefs have become the first Betway Premiership club to return from the end-of-season break for preseason training.
The Glamour Boys finished in a disappointing ninth place last term but ended on a high. It was a 2-1 victory over fierce nemesis Orlando Pirates in the Nedbank Cup to end a 10-year trophy drought.
Amakhosi will leave South Africa to hold a preseason camp in the Netherlands between 3 and 19 July, including a friendly against Eredivisie side Utrecht FC.
