Manchester City and Pep Guardiola have now been tipped with a summer transfer swoop for one Manchester United-linked player, according to reports in Spain.
Ruben Amorim is now making his final preparations at Old Trafford ahead of Manchester United embarking on their pre-season campaign this summer.
The Red Devils will travel to both Europe and the United States as part of their pre-season tour ahead of the 2025-26 Premier League campaign at Old Trafford.
United will return to action on 19th July against rivals Leeds United, with the Red Devils travelling to the Strawberry Arena in Stockholm for the friendly match.
Ruben Amorim’s men will then head to the States and play three more matches across the pond before returning to Old Trafford for their final tie of the tour.
United’s matches in the United States – played across July and August – will be against fellow Premier League sides West Ham, Bournemouth and Everton.

What is the release clause of Man Utd-linked Denzel Dumfries and what is Barcelona’s stance on the Inter Milan star?
Denzel Dumfries will be available for as little as £21m (€25m) this summer, but the former PSV Eindhoven defender will be available for the price for a limited time.
The City and United-linked player’s release clause became active from 1st July and will reportedly last until 15th July for foreign clubs in the summer transfer window.
