The visit of the two major European sides will come as Mark Hughes’s team put the finishing touches on their preparations for the new Premier League campaign.



Saints will welcome La Liga outfit Celta Vigo to St Mary’s first, on Wednesday 1st August, with kick-off set for 7.45pm BST.



The visit of Bundesliga side Borussia Mönchengladbach will then follow on Saturday 4th August, with kick-off at 3pm BST.



Saints’ clash with the German top-flight opposition will come one week before the new Premier League campaign begins with a home fixture against Burnley.



Ticket details for both home friendly games will be released in due course.



The club is also pleased to announce it is enhancing its offer to 2018/19 Season Ticket holders, by giving them a free ticket to both games, rather than just one home pre-season match, as an appreciation for their support ahead of the new campaign.



Details of how to redeem this offer will follow alongside other ticket information.
