Manchester United continue their preseason preparations as they take on French side Olympique Lyon on Wednesday, July 19.
Erik ten Hag's side are looking to build on a successful 2022/23 season where they earned a return to the Champions League, and they have already made moves in the transfer market in signing Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount, and they look close to adding Inter goalkeeper Andre Onana to replace the departed David de Gea.
The Red Devils will take part in a further five fixtures in their preseason against a variety of sides, including taking on the Ryan Reynolds-owned Wrexham, Premier League rivals Arsenal, and Spanish giants Real Madrid.
The Sporting News has all the details on how fans around the world can tune into their friendly match against Lyon.
