Manchester United will continue their preparations for the 2022-23 campaign with a pre-season friendly against Australian outfit Melbourne Victory on Friday.
The Red Devils opened their summer tour with a 4-0 win over bitter rivals Liverpool on Tuesday and will now face the side who finished second in the A-League Men last term. Melbourne Victory are three-time A-League men's champions, last lifting the trophy in 2015, and last time out they finished second in their domestic table, one point behind Melbourne City.
The Boys in Blue confirmed the signing of former Man United attacker Nani on Tuesday, and the Portuguese will be looking to feature against the 20-time English champions in this fixture. Tony Popovich's side have been busy with incomings this summer, with Tommy Juric, Paul Izzo and George Timothee set to join the club ahead of the new campaign.
The 2022-23 A-League men's season does not actually start until October 7, while it will be suspended in mid-November due to the 2022 World Cup. As well as Nani, Victory have another Portuguese in the form of Roderick Miranda, the former Wolverhampton Wanderers centre-back vice-captain of the Australian outfit, with the 31-year-old expected to slot in at the back. in Friday's pre-season clash with the Red Devils.
Man United made the perfect start to their pre-season on Tuesday as Jadon Sancho, Fred, Anthony Martial and Facundo Pellistri all found the back of the net to beat Liverpool 4-0. New head coach Erik ten Haag insisted he would not read too much into the result, but the Dutchman was pleased with his players' performances and the team now travel to Australia for three games against Victory, Crystal Palace and Aston. Villa.
The Red Devils will return to Europe at the end of the month for their final two friendlies of the summer against Atletico Madrid and Rio Vallecano before the 2022-23 Premier League campaign kicks off in Brighton. & Hove Albion on 7th August.
Despite speculation surrounding a number of players, Tyrrell Malaysia is the team's only summer signing so far, and the Netherlands international made his debut off the bench against Liverpool. The 2021-22 campaign has been a very disappointing one for Man United, with the team finishing sixth in the Premier League table, but early reports surrounding Ten Haag have been overwhelmingly positive, and the English giants should be buoyed by a fine display against Jurgen Klopp's side. .

Acton; Geria, Roderick, Timotheou, N Smith; Barnett, Brimmer, Broxham, Brillante; D'Agostino, Juric
Manchester United possible starting lineup:
