Manager Erik ten Hag has confirmed that Manchester United's squad for this summer's pre-season tour of the United States will be made up of first-team regulars and youngsters with a point to prove.
United will return to the US for the second pre-season campaign in a row in July, facing Premier League counterparts Arsenal in their opening game of the tour at the SoFi Stadium in California on July 28. The Reds will then lock horns with Real Betis four days later at the Snapdragon Stadium in San Diego on August 1.
A youthful United XI played League Two side Wrexham at the Snapdragon Stadium on last summer's tour, losing 3-1. United's tour across the pond will conclude against Liverpool at the Williams-Brice Stadium in South Carolina on August 4.
