The club announced its plan to return to the US over Twitter and the majority of its fixtures will take place on the west coast of the country, before they visit Chicago on the way back to England.

Man United kick off their tour with a tie against Club America in CenturyLink Field, Seattle, and then face MLS outfit San Jose Earthquakes, although the venue is yet to be confirmed.

Then the Reds will play Barcelona in Levi’s Stadium, California, before taking on PSG in Chicago’s Soldier Field. Louis Van Gaal’s side will play four games in 12 days before flying home for the beginning of the English Premier League on August 8.
