LONDON: Manchester United will play Italian side Sampdoria in a friendly in Dublin in August as part of their pre-season tour, the Premier League giants announced on Monday. The teams will face off at the Aviva Stadium on August 2 in what will be the seventh fixture of United’s pre-season programme. Jose Mourinho’s side face five games in the United States, against the LA Galaxy, Real Salt Lake, Manchester City, Real Madrid and Barcelona, as well as a friendly in Norway against Valerenga. “The team has a good variety of games over the summer, playing in great stadiums and allowing a large number of our global family of fans to see live games across the world,” said United executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward in a press release. “The pre-season programme has been put together to ensure the manager and his squad have a great platform to prepare for next season with games against top-class opposition.” — AFP
