As we near the end of the 2023-24 season, Premier League teams are already making arrangements for a US tour.



The likes of Liverpool, Manchester United, and Arsenal have all confirmed that the United States will play host to their preseason tours. There will be a string of matches in which they face off against one another.



This will be Liverpool and Manchester United’s first meeting in the US since 2018. It will take place on July 31 in Philadelphia. Their last game was in Ann Arbor’s Michigan Stadium six years ago when 101,000 spectators were present.



Chelsea and Manchester City have already confirmed their participation in the Soccer Champions Tour. This summer, it will take place in six US cities, including AC Milan, Real Madrid, and Barcelona. In the first two games of the collection, Man City will take against AC Milan and Barcelona. Meanwhile, Real Madrid will be the last opponent for Chelsea.



Also, Aston Villa will play a friendly versus Columbus Crew, the defending MLS Cup winners, as part of their return to the US this summer. In the weeks and months ahead, further preseason games will be announced.



<h2>More Premier League teams to tour the US?</h2>



It has now been reported that a preseason event in the US has extended invitations to many other teams. Per <a href="https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/newcastle-united-invited-play-united-28868572" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Chronicle Live</a>, it would have West Ham, Everton, Wolves, and Newcastle competing against each other.



This news source first broke the news that a three-game series beginning on August 3 would take place in Tampa Bay, Connecticut, and Jacksonville (Florida). Nevertheless, rumor has it that the event has not been officially sanctioned as yet. In particular, since Wolves and West Ham are still in the hunt for a place in Europe’s qualifying round. On the other hand, Everton are battling relegation.

But controversy has engulfed Newcastle, who will face Tottenham in a postseason match in Australia. It will be not long after the <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/premier-league-tv-schedule">Premier League</a> season concludes in May.



Nothing has been officially announced as of yet, and the Ohio Cup, an earlier U.S. preseason competition, was abruptly canceled, as reported by Chronicle Live. Thus, this time around, the results of the Premier League season will most certainly play a deciding impact.



Until an official announcement is made, fans should not make any reservations.



<h2>Thrilling chance for quartet</h2>



If confirmed, however, the Hammers would be embarking on their second far-flung tour in as many years. Following their triumph in the Europa Conference League final in Prague last summer, they embarked on a preseason tour of Australia.



However, for Everton supporters throughout the globe, the chance to see their team play in the US is a thrilling possibility. Even if they are far away, they may still feel a stronger connection to the club. All thanks to this unique opportunity to see their favorite team play live.



Playing home games in America also gives the Toffees a better chance of drawing in spectators from all around the world. This boosts the club’s profile and opens doors for potential sponsors throughout the world.

Four more Premier League teams set for US preseason tour

As we near the end of the 2023-24 season, Premier League teams are already making arrangements for a US tour

Each summer, soccer fans in the USA hope that their favorite Premier League team makes the trip across the Atlantic Ocean to play a friendly or two. 



Some of the biggest clubs from around Europe typically head abroad to conduct their preseason preparations. The United States is generally one of the top destinations for these teams. This mostly comes down teams wanting to grow their fanbase in the highly-desirable North American market.



Popularity in the sport is certainly growing here in the States as well. Clubs know this and want to get in on the action. Along with America, Asian countries are also a popular place to play preseason fixtures as well. In recent years, big European sides tend to feature in summer friendlies in either of the two areas.



<h2>Up to 10 Premier League teams could play preseason games in the USA</h2>



As the most popular soccer division in the world, the <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/premier-league-tv-schedule/">Premier League</a> certainly receives plenty of attention. This recognition has reached the U.S. and Americans continue to watch the English top flight in record numbers. As a result, many Premier League clubs schedule preseason matches across the pond. The upcoming summer is no different.



As of today, six of the best English top flight teams have already announced plans to play exhibition games in the United States throughout July and August. This impressive lineup includes <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/teams/arsenal-tv-schedule/">Arsenal</a>, <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/teams/liverpool-tv-schedule/">Liverpool</a>, <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/teams/manchester-city-tv-schedule/">Manchester City</a>, <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/teams/manchester-united-tv-schedule/">Manchester United</a>, <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/teams/chelsea-tv-schedule/">Chelsea</a>, and <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/teams/aston-villa-tv-schedule/">Aston Villa</a>.

All of these clubs will play multiple matches in the States as well. Chelsea has even already revealed <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/news/chelsea-tickets-for-us-tour-schedule-dates-host-cities/">five total fixtures</a> this coming summer. This is, so far, the most summer matchups currently scheduled by any Premier League team.



Along with the sextet, other English teams could follow suit as well. In fact, <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/teams/everton-tv-schedule/">Everton</a>, <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/teams/newcastle-united-tv-schedule/">Newcastle</a>, <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/teams/west-ham-tv-schedule/">West Ham</a>, and <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/teams/wolves-tv-schedule-for-us-viewers/">Wolves</a> are all rumored to possibly head Stateside this summer. The four clubs could potentially play a series of preseason friendlies during the first week of August.



<h2>Spurs highlight list of Premier League teams not to make US trip</h2>



One significant English club that will unfortunately not be coming to America this summer is <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/teams/tottenham-tv-schedule/">Tottenham Hotspur</a>. The north London side is, instead, <a href="https://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news/2024/march/club-to-visit-australia-in-may-for-post-season-fixture-against-newcastle-united/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">set to travel</a> to Australia at the end of May. The decision to go Down Under makes sense as the team’s head coach, Ange Postecoglou, grew up in Melbourne. Spurs may also continue their preseason games in Asia as well.



Along with Postecoglou’s club, nine other Premier League sides are not thought to be planning a summer trip to the States. This includes Brentford, Bournemouth, Brighton, Burnley, Crystal Palace, Fulham, Luton Town, Nottingham Forest, and Sheffield United. At the moment, Brighton is currently the only team currently in the top half of the Premier League table.



While 10 English top flight teams will not likely play in the States this summer, Americans could still see the most number of Premier League clubs playing in the United States ever. This is, of course, assuming a few more teams officially announce plans to play here in the coming weeks.



Premier League teams, however, are not the only foreign clubs to schedule summer friendlies in the States. <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/schedule-of-soccer-friendlies-in-us-this-summer/">Several other</a> top sides have also already revealed upcoming trips across the Atlantic as well.
