Manchester United is gearing up to wrap up their pre-season schedule with an exciting friendly against AC Milan in Wroclaw, Poland on 15 August. This match will serve as a thrilling lead-up to the new Premier League campaign.

The Red Devils' pre-season preparations kick off on 18 July in Helsinki, facing Wrexham. They will then head to Trondheim, Norway to take on Rosenborg the following Friday.

In August, United's European tour continues with two matches in Sweden:

• Atletico Madrid in the Snapdragon Cup in Stockholm on 1 August
• Paris St Germain in Gothenburg on 8 August

Additionally, they will confront Leeds in Dublin on 12 August, rounding out a rigorous summer schedule.

Director of football Jason Wilcox expressed enthusiasm about concluding the tour in Poland, highlighting the importance of fan engagement across Europe. He stated, “These matches will provide strong preparation for the 2026-27 season and a valuable opportunity to connect with our incredible fans.”

This announcement comes during a critical summer for United, following the confirmation of Michael Carrick as their permanent head coach. Chief executive Omar Berrada asserted that the club has a “clear plan” for summer transfers, emphasizing discipline in their investment strategy.

Berrada noted the success of last year's recruitment efforts, including signings like Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo, and confirmed a £35 million fee with Atalanta for Brazilian midfielder Ederson. He reiterated the club’s commitment to a balanced approach, blending experience with youth, while ensuring decisions are made for both short-term success and long-term stability.
