This week, Manchester United will play a stealthy preseason friendly against Wrexham. Interestingly, this weekend’s Red Devils schedule already includes matches against Atletico Madrid and Rayo Vallecano.
Erik ten Hag, according to credible sources, wanted to play one more game before the new season began. Initial plans called for young players to get some playing time against the National League team owned by Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney of Hollywood.
The Dutchman is reportedly eager to observe a few senior stars, who will be eager to make their mark and force their way into contention.
Given that he hasn’t played in a United jersey yet, Christian Eriksen is most likely to make an appearance. He joined the team this month after signing as a free agent, but he did not travel with them on their preseason tour of Asia and Australia, which featured victories over Liverpool and Crystal Palace.
Additionally, Cristiano Ronaldo might take part in the friendly match behind closed doors. The Portuguese star, who missed the tour due to supposed family reasons, arrived back in Manchester last night.
