With the new season nearly upon us, Premier League clubs are jetting around the globe, providing a regular fix of entertaining friendlies. 

With so much football being played at a time when the transfer market is extremely busy, our LiveScore writers have not been short of inspiration. 

Here is a round-up of the highlights from the last week.
