Manchester United are set to face Ligue 1 club Lens for a club friendly on August 5.
This upcoming encounter between United and Lens marks their inaugural meeting, yet they're linked by defender Raphael Varane, who initiated his professional journey with the Blood and Gold.
Franck Haise's team narrowly trailed league champions Paris-Saint Germain by just one point in the previous Ligue 1 season, ensuring their qualification for the Champions League group stage in the upcoming 2023/24 season.
Erik ten Hag's side finished the 3rd during the Premier League 2022/23 campaign, earning the ticket to the Champions League. For the upcoming season the Red Devils will look to sustain their spot in the Top 4.
