The pre-season friendly between Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United at Ullevi Stadium in Gothenburg, Sweden, ended in a 1-1 draw. PSG took an early lead in the second minute through Ibrahim Mbaye, assisted by Dro Fernández. Manchester United equalized in the 32nd minute via Bryan Mbeumo, who utilized a turnover forced by Amad Diallo. While Manchester United controlled much of the match tempo, PSG goalkeeper Matvei Safonov made several key saves to preserve the draw. The fixture featured the debut of new Manchester United signing Youri Tielemans, alongside playing time for Andrey Santos and the return of Bruno Fernandes and Diogo Dalot. PSG utilized the second half to integrate returning players Vitinha, Joao Neves, Marquinhos, and Nuno Mendes, while young talent David Boly received praise for a solid defensive performance. Manchester United faced injury concerns as midfielder Mason Mount and goalkeeper Tom Heaton were both forced to leave the pitch. Manager Michael Carrick noted improved team intensity and expressed a desire to integrate his full squad, with players such as Marcus ~~Rashford~~ Rashford, Lisandro Martínez, and Kobbie Mainoo expected to join the team in ~~Dublin~~ Ireland for the final stages of preparation. Following the match, PSG manager Luis Enrique noted that despite some errors, the team is progressing. Despite finishing their pre-season without a victory following this draw and a previous 3-0 loss to Mallorca, PSG will now shift focus to their UEFA Super Cup fixture against Aston Villa on August 12. The club is also managing the integration of returning players Achraf Hakimi and Ousmane Dembélé, though their availability for the Super Cup remains uncertain. Off the pitch, PSG has been linked to Ferran Torres and goalkeeper Zion Suzuki.
