The match will feature top talents like Erling Haaland and Jack Grealish, with some players from the Euros returning. Those who played in the latter stages, like Phil Foden, will not face Celtic.

The friendly against Celtic is Manchester City’s first preseason match, offering a crucial warm-up ahead of their season opener against Chelsea on August 18.

Celtic, on the other hand, are deeper into their preseason schedule. They secured a 4-0 victory over DC United in their first Game of the USA tour and are set to commence their season on August 4 against Kilmarnock, in just over two weeks.
