[Club Friendlies] Rosenborg vs Man Utd - For Manchester United, this is their first pre-season match, and the team is likely to rotate heavily.

The Norwegian team will play just one friendly match before the Eliteserien resumes. On July 21, they will face Lillestrøm. Currently, Rosenborg occupies the ninth spot in the league table, with 17 points from 14 matches. They are nine points behind fourth place, and if they hope to bridge this gap, they must improve their consistency, as their recent results have been rather erratic.

In their last five matches, they have recorded two wins, two losses, and one draw. Traditionally seen as contenders for the top spots, Rosenborg has yet to perform to their usual standards this season.

The Red Devils are beginning their preparations for the new English Premier League season. The match against Rosenborg will be United's first in their pre-season schedule. They are also set to play against Rangers, Arsenal, Betis, and Liverpool. In less than a month, on August 10, they will play their first official match against Manchester City in the FA Community Shield.

Manchester United is actively seeking to bolster their squad, with Matthijs de Ligt being one of their potential targets. Additionally, Jadon Sancho has resolved his issues with head coach Erik ten Hag. The team appears to be in good spirits and focused on the upcoming season.
