Following a summer of change, chief executive Omar Berrada has shared his positivity for the long campaign ahead in a column for our matchday programme, United Review…
“Welcome back to Old Trafford for our first game of the new Premier League season where we host this afternoon’s opponents, Arsenal. We arrive back after a positive pre-season, starting in Sweden, before the Premier League Summer Series in the US and the Snapdragon Cup here at Old Trafford last weekend.
“It’s always a pleasure to see our incredible fans all around the world. Manchester United’s passionate and dedicated following never disappoints. Wherever we go, you are always out in force. We also work with world-class partners and enjoyed some incredible activations with adidas, Snapdragon and many others on our travels.
“It’s been a summer of change, as we moved into our fully refurbished men’s team training complex at Carrington. It is truly best in class and reflects the significant investment which has been made in it. We have no doubt that it will create a high-performance environment for our coaches, players and staff.
“Jason Wilcox and the football department have been working hard over the summer to attract the best talent to help us improve the squad. We’re delighted to have Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo, Benjamin Sesko and Diego Leon with us and we’re confident about the impact they will have.
“It was also a huge pleasure to see the England women’s team win the Euros for a second time. It was a fantastic achievement and we were especially proud of Ella Toone, Grace Clinton and Maya Le Tissier for the role they played. We look forward to celebrating their success when they return from pre-season.
“Throughout last season, whatever the results and whatever the challenges, you were always with us. The spirit of this club, to never give up and to never stop striving for success, lives on in all of you. Every person at the football club is focused on giving you a lot more to cheer about this season.
“Finally, on behalf of everyone at Manchester United, we send our sincere condolences to the families of Diogo Jota and Andre Silva, and everyone at Liverpool Football Club. We will have the opportunity before the match to pay our respects to both of them and the wonderful impact these young men had on everyone around them.
“Enjoy the game and, as ever, thank you for your unbelievable support.”
