Downing Street announced the meetings on Friday morning, according to Reuters.
A European Commission spokeswoman would not disclose to The Guardian the exact location of the meeting with Juncker, a former Luxembourg PM, but stated it would be “neutral”. The newspaper quoted her saying: “It is a working lunch so you can imagine it is somewhere serving food.”
@JunckerEU will have a working lunch with @BorisJohnson on Monday, 16 September, in Luxembourg.

“EU sources suggested Johnson had sought to avoid a meeting in Brussels for fear of giving the impression that the new prime minister was begging for concessions,” The Guardian wrote.
It is Johnson’s first meeting with Juncker since becoming PM, noted the Evening Standard.
Separately, the grand duchy’s government told local media on Friday that Bettel would host Johnson at the Luxembourg prime minister’s office in the early afternoon on 16 September, to discuss “the subject of Brexit”. A press conference is scheduled to take place following their meeting.
