European clubs have come calling. Villarreal have organized a preseason schedule including some very interesting names. Although the schedule is not set for all of the matches, Villarreal will be playing West Ham, Valladolid, Udinese, Liverpool and Zaragoza. These matches, especially against Liverpool, but also West Ham and Udinese, should help prepare Villarreal for the varying styles and strategies they will come up against in Champions League play. Also, it must be rewarding for the local fans to have well-known teams come in to play at El Madrigal (not sure which are coming in, but at least Liverpool is on 7.30.08).
