Tottenham will play Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates in July on a preseason tour to South Africa.

The Premier League club plays the Chiefs on July 16 before meeting the Pirates three days later. Spurs will then meet the winner of a game between the Johannesburg rivals in the July 23 final of the tournament.

Spurs last visited South Africa in 2007 and defender Michael Dawson says ''there is a real passion for football in the country.''
