Leeds United begin their pre-season schedule with a fixture against rivals Manchester United on Saturday in Stockholm.

Action from the Strawberry Arena gets underway at 3pm local time, 2pm BST, with fans able to purchase a match pass for just £4.99 HERE.

The encounter will offer an exciting test for Daniel Farke’s side in the build up to the new campaign, as the Whites face last season’s Europa League runners up. In the Premier League, Ruben Amorim’s team finished in 15th place in the previous term.

Leeds go into the clash with four new arrivals through the door, as the tie may give fans a chance to see Lukas Nmecha, Jaka Bijol, Sebastiaan Bornauw and Gabriel Gudmundsson feature for the club for the first time.

Held at Sweden’s iconic national stadium, the reigning second-tier champions will wear their newly launched 2025/26 away kit, which is on sale now. Shop the 25/26 away kit online HERE.

Thoughts from inside camp:

Ahead of the encounter at the Strawberry Arena, attacker Willy Gnonto says that spirits are high going into the tie.

“It is going really well,” the Italian international told LUTV. “I feel like we are working really hard, we are getting ready for what is going to come and it is important to get to know the new players, get to know what the coach wants to do this season and, yeah, just good vibes all around.

“I think everyone is in a good mood. Everyone is happy to be back and we are ready to work. It is obviously tough, but it is good to get ready from now so that the season is going to be easier for us.
