Christopher Harris

Manchester United played a training session Wednesday in Chicago that was open to the public. And we had EPL Talk photographer Christian Doellner on hand to capture some brilliant pictures of what happened on the pitch at Toyota Park.

Players including Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes, Edwin van der Sar and others trained for approximately one hour in front of a few thousand spectators.

Thursday morning, officials and players from Manchester United rung the opening bell on the Chicago Stock Exchange. Next step for Man United is to play their first preseason friendly of the summer. They’ll be playing against Celtic at Rogers Center. For viewers in the United States, the game will be televised on ESPN2 at 7pm ET.
