Manchester United will begin preparations for the upcoming 2023/24 Premier League campaign with their first pre-season friendly against Leeds United next week.
The Red Devils have a packed schedule coming up as Erik ten Hag looks to build on their third-place finish and Carabao Cup win last term.

This match is likely to be Mason Mount’s debut after he completed his transfer from Chelsea, while Red Devils fans will hope the club have a couple of more new faces through the door by the time this one gets underway.
Meanwhile, Leeds are looking to bounce back to the top-flight at the first time of asking after relegation and have appointed former Norwich boss Daniel Farke.

Manchester United vs Leeds: Team news
Lisandro Martinez has been working hard to recover from the metatarsal injury that ended his 2022/23 season, so he could play some part here.
Anthony Martial missed the end of last year with a hamstring problem, while Donny van de Beek should also be fit.
Mount will most likely make his debut after overcoming a pelvis issue, but several players who were involved in June internationals are unlikely to take part.
Leeds have three long-term injuries, with Stuart Dallas, Tyler Adams and Luis Sinisterra all suffering from major issues.
But Farke will hope the trio can at least play some part.
