Liverpool are set to embark on their pre-season tour in the United States this summer, engaging in friendly matches against Premier League rivals Arsenal and Manchester United.
The action kicks off on July 31 at the Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, where they will face Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal.
Before a highly anticipated and financially rewarding friendly against Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United is scheduled to take place on August 3 at the Williams-Brice Stadium in Columbia, South Carolina.
The clash promises to be a glamorous event, attracting attention from football enthusiasts eager to witness these prestigious matchups.
Liverpool’s visit to the United States is sure to captivate fans and generate excitement as the team prepares for the 2024/25 season.
This marks Liverpool’s return to the United States for the first time since their 2019 tour, which occurred shortly after their triumph in the Champions League.
“We are proud to announce our highly anticipated return to the USA, providing a great environment for the squad to prepare for the season ahead,” said Ben Latty, the club’s commercial director.
“Pre-season tours always present exceptional opportunities for our supporters, the team and our official partners to engage in memorable experiences within a key focus market for the club.
“We know millions of super-passionate American fans love this club and what we stand for, a fact underlined when our televised game with Arsenal in December became the most-watched Premier League game in US history.
“The USA is an important market for the club and our partners; with 67 official supporters clubs, international academies across 12 states, and the USA being the number one international market for our merchandising business.
“We eagerly await the opportunity to bring the club closer to the fans and look forward to playing in these iconic venues.”
In the previous two summers, Liverpool chose the Far East as their pre-season destination, with stops in Thailand and Singapore.
