Manchester United are planning to add more matches to their pre-season tour.

According to the Manchester Evening News, the Reds are set to play two friendlies in the space of two days on the final weekend of their pre-season schedule.

Manchester United are set to face a side in Dublin on August 5 before facing Athletic Bilbao at Old Trafford on August 6.

Erik ten Hag is planning for a busy summer of pre-season friendlies to help the team prepare for the next Premier League campaign.

It would be a great benefit for Ten Hag if the recruitment team can secure all his top targets before the squad jets off to the United States.

The tour of the US will see United take on Arsenal in New York on July 22, Real Madrid in Houston on July 26, and Borussia Dortmund in Las Vegas on July 30. On top of that, an Academy side will play Wrexham in San Diego on July 25.

United also take on Leeds in Oslo on July 12 and Lyon in Edinburgh on July 19.

Fans will be planning their trips over the summer hoping to see the Reds on their travels. Let us know in the comments section if you plan on going to see any of the pre-season matches.
