New faces will not be the only order of the day at the Theatre of Dreams, as the Italian club will bring with them a renowned former Red in David De Gea.
The Spanish keeper spent 12 years with the club, encompassing Premier League, Europa League, Emirates FA Cup and League Cup triumphs, and is returning for the first time as a player since departing the club in 2023, should La Viola boss Stefano Pioli select him on the day.
De Gea, along with our new signings and the rest of the United squad, will undoubtedly receive a warm welcome from a bustling Old Trafford before we get down to business, putting in the finishing touches on a solid pre-season ahead of Arsenal’s visit just over a week later.
David has been swapping messages with former team-mate Bruno Fernandes ahead of the game, too.
