Bristol City players will return to the High Performance Centre next week to begin a mini pre-season ahead of their return to action.
The Robins will also face an as yet unnamed Premier League side in a friendly which is set to be behind closed doors, likely to be on the weekend of December 3. City head to Rotherham United seven days later as their Championship campaign gets back underway.
The first-team players have been off this week, spending time out of the country or with their families. Andi Weimann, who gave City an injury scare while on international duty with Austria, has eased concerns by heading to the Maldives with his family.
