The World Cup may be behind us, but soccer never sleeps, and in less than a month, major European leagues will be back in full swing. Real Madrid, Chelsea and Tottenham have been some of the biggest stories of the summer, with Real and Chelsea both bringing in new coaches and Tottenham remaking their entire squad, which is one of many reasons why preseason play is important. Doubly so in a World Cup year as some key players are still on their holidays and clubs will need to figure out who can fill their places as soccer waits for no one.
