The All Blacks reportedly will play one test against Fiji and 2 test matches against Italy next July, if New Zealand's border restrictions and the COVID-19 pandemic allows.
The All Blacks last played Fiji nine years ago in Dunedin, winning 60-14, while it's been 11 years since Italy lost 27-6 in their last appearance on New Zealand soil.
The NZ Herald reports that the three tests would be scheduled for the same time as Warren Gatland's British and Irish Lions tour to South Africa.
The All Blacks were scheduled to play against Wales and Scotland in July of this year but those tests were postponed due to COVID-19.
The All Blacks' first match of the year, against a Moana Pacific side at Mt Smart Stadium on October 3rd, is also expected to be confirmed soon.
