Manchester United will face Borussia Dortmund in Las Vegas as part of the pre-season tour of the US, the club have announced.
Erik ten Hag’s side will take on the Germans at the Allegiant Stadium on Sunday July 30. It’s the second tour fixture to be confirmed after United’s game against Wrexham in San Diego on July 25 was announced last week.
This will be the first time United have toured the US in five years and the second time they will have faced Dortmund in pre-season after a friendly in China in 2016.
United’s football director John Murtough said: ‘We have worked with the manager and his staff to provide a mix of competitive opponents to play during our tour of the US and we look forward to the match against Borussia Dortmund.
‘As well as gaining valuable playing time, the squad will also be participating in training camps within the best sporting facilities available, giving our players the opportunity to build fitness before the start of the new Premier League season.
‘The response we have received from fans since announcing we will be returning to the US has been incredible. We already have a full house for the match in San Diego and I am sure it will be the same for this fixture in Vegas.’
