Manchester United are set to continue their pre-season tour with their fourth fixture of the summer as Michael Carrick steps up preparations ahead of his first full season at the helm.

The Reds have already taken on Wrexham, Rosenborg, and Atletico Madrid in recent weeks, with Bryan Mbeumo scoring twice and Mason Mount producing an outstanding display to offer a glimpse of what supporters can expect next season.

United's next challenge will be their biggest test of pre-season so far, as they travel to Nya Ullevi in Göteborg, Sweden, to face reigning Champions League winners Paris Saint-Germain.

The clash with PSG will be followed by a trip to Dublin to meet Leeds United, before United round off their summer schedule against Rúben Amorim's AC Milan in Wroclaw, Poland.

United confirm travelling squad vs PSG

With the tie against PSG coming just two weeks before the side start their Premier Legaue season against Hull City (A), many of the club's top stars are beginning to return from World Cup action.

Last week, new signing Belgian Youri Tielemans entered Carrington for training, although it was too short notice for him to be with the squad to face Atleti.

However, Carrick has selected him ahead of the trip to Sweden, with Tielemans almost certain to have his first minutes playing in Red following a £35 million move from Aston Villa.

At the same time, Bruno Fernandes, Noussair Mazraoui, and Diogo Dalot, who all returned to training on Monday, have been included in the squad and are expected to play.

Young stars Shea Lacey and Harry Amass remain in the squad while Matheus Cunha and Senne Lammens miss out due to illness.

Benjamin Sesko remains in Manchester as he is treated for injury. The full squad is listed below.

Goalkeepers: Heaton, Mee, Heath.

Defenders: Amass, Armer, Dorgu, Dalot, Heaven, Maguire, Mazraoui, Shaw, Yoro.

Midfielders: Fernandes, Fletcher, Fletcher, Mount, Santos, Tielemans.

Forwards: Amad, Lacey, Mbeumo, Zirkzee.

United vs PSG history

United and PSG have a short but interesting competitive history.

The two sides have met on four occasions, with two ties in 2019, when a famous Marcus Rashford penalty at the Parc des Princes knocked the French side out of the Champions League.

Then, during the group stage of the 2020/21 Champions League campaign, the two sides faced off twice more.

Rashford again secured a winning goal in Paris for a 2-1 October win, while PSG won 3-1 at Old Trafford in the reserve fixture in December.
