Man Utd confirm ten Hag first home match against Rayo Vallecano | OneFootball

Manchester United have confirmed Erik ten Hag's first home match will take place against Rayo Vallecano on Sunday July 31.

The Red Devils will finish their preseason preparations with a friendly against the Spanish side, which will kick off at 4pm.

United will kick off their preseason with a clash against Liverpool in Bangkok, before facing Melbourne Victory and Crystal Palace in Melbourne and Aston Villa in Perth.

John Murtough, United's football director, said: "Pre-season is all about preparation and this is a great opportunity for those squad members who may not have featured in some of our earlier Tour and pre-season matches to get valuable minutes on the pitch – and where better to do this than Old Trafford?

"This will be the new manager's first match at Old Trafford, and I am sure the fans will provide him with a warm welcome."

Manchester United's chief operating officer, Collette Roche, added: "We are delighted to be able to offer fans the opportunity to share in the experience of Erik Ten Hag's first match in the dugout at Old Trafford.

"As well as the chance to see some of the club's up-and-coming stars, fans purchasing tickets for this match will also be contributing towards a fantastic cause, with the club donating 10 percent of profits from the game to Manchester United Foundation and its work within the community."
