Albion's first domestic pre-season friendly as they prepare for the Premier League will be against Harry Kewell's Crawley.

Australian Kewell has been confirmed as Crawley's new head coach.

The Seagulls visit their Sussex neighbours on July 22 (3PM).

Their first warm-up match will be during a pre-season training camp in Austria.

Kewell, 38, played in two Champions League finals for Liverpool after starting his career in England with Leeds.

Since retiring three years ago, Kewell has been working towards his UEFA Pro License coaching qualification and was in charge of the under-23s at Watford from June 2015 before leaving the club by mutual consent earlier this year.

Crawley's director of football Selim Gaygusuz said: "During his interview Harry showed us great passion - that's needed to take this team move onwards."

Kewell, 38, will be assisted at Crawley by ex-Northern Ireland international Warren Feeney.
