When is the next international break? Stars preparing for second spell away

Countries are heading into the business end of their Euro 2024 qualifiers and their places in the tournament will be decided by November.

That means there will be two more international breaks in the next two months, with the first coming up very soon…

When is the next international break?

The next international break begins on Monday, October 9.

That means the Premier League will take a two-week hiatus from that date, with domestic fixtures returning on Saturday, October 21.

This break comes less than four weeks after the end of the opening international period at the start of September.
