Manchester United will play Borussia Dortmund in Las Vegas in July as part of its summer tour of the US, bringing the most famous football club on the planet to the entertainment capital of the world.
The match, which will be played at the Allegiant Stadium, Las Vegas, on Sunday, July 30, is the second fixture of the club’s Tour 2023 to be announced, with more fixtures and locations to be revealed in the coming weeks.
United have not met Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund since a 2016 tour game in China and the pair have only played six competitive matches in their histories – making this summer’s encounter a rare opportunity for US fans to see two of Europe’s leading football teams go head-to-head.
Last week, United announced a game against Welsh side Wrexham at Snapdragon Stadium, San Diego, on July 25. Tickets for this match have already sold out, with fans eager to see the Reds return to the US for the first time in five years.
Manchester United Football Director, John Murtough said, “We have worked with the manager and his staff to provide a mix of competitive opponents to play during our tour of the US and we look forward to the match against Borussia Dortmund.”
“As well as gaining valuable playing time, the squad will also be participating in training camps within the best sporting facilities available, giving our players the opportunity to build fitness before the start of the new Premier League season.
“The response we have received from fans since announcing we will be returning to the US has been incredible. We already have a full house for the match in San Diego and I am sure it will be the same for this fixture in Vegas.”
