Manchester United will play Premier League top-four rivals Tottenham in a pre-season glamour friendly in Shanghai, the Old Trafford club said on Wednesday.
At least six major English clubs will visit China this summer, with Manchester City, Newcastle, West Ham and Wolves taking part in the Premier League Asia Trophy on July 17 in Nanjing and July 20 in Shanghai. United will face Mauricio Pochettino’s Spurs on July 25 in Shanghai, by which time the future of interim manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will be resolved.
They will also play Inter Milan in Singapore on July 20 after two previously announced matches in Australia, against Perth Glory on July 13 and English rivals Leeds, also in Perth, on July 17.
United also announced they would play AC Milan on August 3 in Cardiff.
Conditions are likely to be testing in Shanghai in July, when temperatures can exceed 30 degrees Celsius (86 degrees Fahrenheit), with high humidity and the likelihood of heavy rain.
