Man Utd and Leeds Utd will play their first matches of the summer on Saturday, 19 July, when they face each other at the Strawberry Arena in Stockholm.

It will be the third time in the last decade that the two clubs have played a friendly against each other in Scandinavia, following matches in Norway in 2015 and 2023.

Player to watch: Matheus Cunha
Given that this is a pre-season match, the main reason why most fans will be tuning in will be to see the new signings on both teams take to the field for the first time. The biggest name in this fixture is former Wolves man, Matheus Cunha, who is being tasked with becoming a game changer at the top of the pitch for the Red Devils.
