Preparation for the New Season: United's Tour in America

Manchester United, competing in the English Premier League, announced that it will play several matches in the United States this summer in preparation for the new season, although no dates or locations were mentioned, indicating that details will be revealed in the coming weeks. Club director of football John Murtough stated, "This will be our first visit to the United States in five years and everyone at the club is looking forward to this visit." He added, "We know that the popularity of Manchester United and the Premier League in general is on the rise in America, so we look forward to building on this connection this summer." The club's owners, the Glazer family, are considering selling United in what could be the largest sports deal ever, having received offers from INEOS, owned by billionaire Jim Ratcliffe, and from the son of the former Qatari Prime Minister, Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani.
