The EFL returns from a shorter break this summer on the 30th of July due to the World Cup in Qatar which starts on the 21st of November.

The 2021/22 campaign ends on the 7th of May, less than a month away, and pre season usually starts in mid June – although the break that players will have depends on whether the Swans will participate in the end of season play-offs (however unlikely that may be).
