Four Premier League Clubs Confirm US Pre-Season Tour

Manchester United, Everton, West Ham United, and Bournemouth are set to participate in the second Premier League Summer Series in the United States from July 26 to August 3. The tournament will feature three doubleheaders in New Jersey, Chicago, and Atlanta, with Manchester United opening against West Ham. The series aims to enhance the clubs' brands and reach among American fans, particularly given that three of the four clubs have American owners. Everton's recent ownership changes and Bournemouth's efforts to expand their American footprint, highlighted by the presence of U.S. national team midfielder Tyler Adams, are also noteworthy aspects. The previous Summer Series attracted over 265,000 fans, indicating a strong interest in English football across the U.S. The clubs are expected to balance competitive preparation with commercial opportunities during this tour.
