Manchester United will meet Rosenborg in a pre‑season friendly on Friday, July 24, with kickoff scheduled for noon Eastern Time. The encounter, taking place in Norway, forms part of the English side’s early summer itinerary and will be shown only to viewers in the United Kingdom via the club’s subscription service, MUTV, which carries a fee of £29.99.
A Summer of Friendly Encounters
Rosenborg, currently midway through its domestic campaign, will host United at a time when the English giants are still without a handful of first‑team regulars. The match offers a chance to see emerging talent such as midfielder Andrey Santos, who has been called up to the touring party.
After the Norway fixture, United’s tour continues with a clash against Atlético Madrid in Stockholm on Saturday, August 1, before concluding the Scandinavian leg with a game against AC Milan in Poland on August 15.
The club has confirmed that there will be no live broadcast or streaming options for audiences in the United States, Mexico, or Canada, a restriction that applies across all platforms. In contrast, fans in the United Kingdom can tune in on MUTV, where the subscription model provides access to the friendly and subsequent matches.
While the schedule highlights a series of high‑profile opponents, the tour also serves a broader purpose: integrating new signings, building match fitness and giving the coaching staff a chance to experiment with formations ahead of the competitive season.
