The match, to be held on Sunday 31 July, will provide a final warm-up for Ten Hag’s squad before the start of the 2022/23 Premier League campaign.
Coming a day after the first team take on Atletico Madrid in Oslo, the home match against Rayo Vallecano will ensure that Ten Hag is able to provide game-time to his whole squad in the crucial final week of pre-season.
Manchester United’s football director, John Murtough, comments: “Pre-season is all about preparation and this is a great opportunity for those squad members who may not have featured in some of our earlier Tour and pre-season matches to get valuable minutes on the pitch – and where better to do this than Old Trafford?
