Manchester United to Wrap Up Pre-Season with AC Milan Friendly in Poland

By Abigail David

Manchester United will conclude their pre-season preparations with a high-profile friendly against AC Milan in Wroclaw, Poland, on August 15, the Premier League club confirmed on Tuesday.

The fixture forms part of United’s extensive European tour ahead of the 2026/27 season as manager Michael Carrick aims to build on the club’s third-place finish in the previous campaign.

United begin their pre-season schedule against Wrexham in Helsinki on July 18 before travelling to Norway to face Rosenborg a week later. The team will then head to Sweden for matches against Atletico Madrid in Stockholm on August 1 and reigning European champions Paris Saint-Germain in Gothenburg on August 8.

The Red Devils will also take on long-time rivals Leeds United in Dublin on August 12 before rounding off their preparations against AC Milan three days later.

Manchester United director of football Jason Wilcox said the club was excited to end the tour in Poland, adding that the six-match schedule across five countries would provide valuable preparation for the new campaign while allowing the team to connect with supporters across Europe.
