While the contract between the two clubs has not yet been finalized, a delegation from Everton visited Hamburg in the spring. According to BILD, this delegation visited the stadium. He also held preliminary talks with HSV management about a friendly match.
If the two make the final cut of the game, it will be the first time they meet in any capacity. This is interesting in itself as Everton was founded in 1878, a year after HSV was founded in 1887.
Everton's pre-season plans

After taking part in the Premier League summer series in America last year, David Moyes' team has decided not to be a part of any major event this year.
This proved to be somewhat of a hindrance for David Moyes. He headed to the United States with a weak team that ultimately drew with Manchester United, but lost to both West Ham and Bournemouth.
This year they are doing things differently. This appears to involve being a star guest in HSV's preparations ahead of the start of their Bundesliga campaign.
