Crystal Palace, West Ham United, and Wolverhampton Wanderers are in talks to play a preseason mini tour in America, joining seven other Premier League clubs to play games this summer in the US.
Chelsea, Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester United, Bournemouth, and Aston Villa have also confirmed American dates for summer games.
Newly-promoted Leicester had planned to also come to America during the summer but dropped out and being replaced by Palace, per The Athletic.
Newcastle also has dropped out of the plan put together by Elite Tournaments, but no replacement has taken that spot. Newcastle has yet to announced its summer plans.
With the addition of Palace, West Ham, and Wolves, half of the Premier League teams from this season and next season will be America-bound.
The games between West Ham, Wolves, and Palace will reportedly take place at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium in Annapolis, Maryland, Everbank Stadium in Jacksonville, Florida, and a yet-to-be confirmed stadium in Tampa Bay, Florida.
A likely candidate for the Tampa Bay game would be Raymond James Stadium, home of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Tottenham would be the best current team in the Premier League table in fifth place to not have current plans to come to America over the next few months.
Spurs however have announced a preseason trip to Japan.
Every team appearing in America over the coming months has already secured its place in next year's Premier League, with Palace being the lowest on the table in 14th, but still clear of relegation.
