Manchester United USA Tour 2015 Official Thread! by seydam21(m): 6:31am On Jul 15, 2015 |
MANCHESTER UNITED'S US TOUR STARTS TODAY United are heading back to the United States for Tour 2015 to defend the International Champions Cup... This Monday afternoon, Louis van Gaal and his Manchester United squad will embark on Tour 2015, presented by Aon, as the preparations for the new campaign continue in earnest. The Reds will jet out to the United States to begin the defence of the International Champions Cup which was claimed in impressive fashion last summer. Van Gaal’s men face four matches during the stay across the pond, against Mexican outfit Club America (17 July), MLS side San Jose Earthquakes (21 July) and European giants Barcelona (25 July) and Paris Saint- Germain (29 July). United fans could see new signings Memphis Depay and Matteo Darmian in action next Friday when the Reds play the opening tour match in Seattle against Club America. Memphis spent last week training with his new team-mates and was officially unveiled alongside van Gaal at Old Trafford on Friday. Darmian's transfer from Torino was finalised on Saturday and the Italian defender says he can't wait to get started. CLUB MEDIA COVERAGE MUTV viewers in the UK and Ireland will be able to watch every United match live. ManUtd.com reporters Nick Coppack, Mark Froggatt and Gemma Thompson will be travelling with the squad throughout the trip to bring you all the news from inside the camp, via exclusive player interviews and our daily rolling blog which will also feature exclusive behind-the-scenes photos.

LUKE SHAW "I think the tour is the most important time to get to know everyone and to settle into the group as a new player. I think the players that have come here in the past few years will say exactly the same thing and know how it feels. It’s never easy coming to a new club but everyone here is great and really helps you." TYLER BLACKETT “Going on tour last year was a great experience for me and I learnt just how massive the club is. In America you don’t expect people to know your name, especially as a young player, but they did - it was unbelievable. The trip also helps you get to know the other players and learn how it is to be a United player. Being involved with the first team is an adventure and a good achievement and I want to keep learning and improving." JUAN MATA "It was unbelievable to see last year how many supporters we have in the United States and even playing teams like Real Madrid, we had more supporters than them, so it’s amazing to feel the States are with us. I think it’s very nice to know that the American fans are trying to learn more about the history of the club and we really, really love them and we thank them a lot because we can feel their support even from overseas, and hopefully we can see a lot of them this summer." |
