Manchester United's 2015-16 pre-season fixtures in full

The Red Devils will travel to the USA to play four matches, including clashes with Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain

Louis van Gaal was keen for his Manchester United side to avoid a busy pre-season fixture list, and though it is far more condensed when compared to last year, they still have plenty on their plate this summer.

A tour of America makes up the bulk of their preparations as they face Club America and San Jose Earthquakes during their first week in the States.

They then end their trip with a mouthwatering clash against Barcelona and a further difficult test against Paris Saint-Germain.

From there they will return home, with reports suggesting the club will follow its usual pattern of hosting a match at Old Trafford so as to test the stadium's health and safety systems on the eve of the season proper.

Manchester United's pre-season fixtures:

Jul 17: Club America
Jul 21: San Jose Earthquakes
Jul 25: Barcelona
Jul 29: Paris Saint-Germain
