Manchester United kick off a new era under Ruben Amorim with a pre-season friendly against newly-promoted Leeds United in Stockholm on Saturday.
After a disastrous 2024–25 campaign that saw them finish 15th and miss out on European football, the Red Devils are desperate for a reset. So, this match offers the first real look at rebuild in Amroim's first full season as the coach.
All eyes will be on Matheus Cunha, who’s in line for his debut following a low-key summer transfer season that’s seen just two arrivals so far.

With United still actively trying to offload a host of wantaway stars, including Alejandro Garnacho, Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, and Antony, this friendly doubles as both a tactical experiment and a showcase for players fighting to stay.
Leeds, on the other hand, enter with momentum and purpose after storming back into the Premier League with a 100-point Championship campaign.
Daniel Farke’s side will want to make an early statement, and with new signings like Jaka Bijol and Felix Nmecha potentially debuting, there’s a fresh look to the squad that toppled the second tier. While this isn’t a league clash, the rivalry runs deep, and the Whites would relish spoiling Amorim’s opening chapter.
