Spain’s Real Madrid and FC Barcelona, Italy’s Juventus and AC Milan, and England’s Arsenal and Manchester United will compete in eight matches between Saturday, July 22, and Wednesday, August 2, 2023.

In addition to men’s and women’s professional club matches, the tour also intends to organize elite youth academy competitions in the years to come. 

Soccer Champions Tour is working closely with global premium experiences company Legends to bring these marquee matchups and elevated in-game experiences to local fans of the game. 

Added Shervin Mirhashemi, CEO, Legends: “Legends is proud to bring fans of the beautiful game this unforgettable experience this summer and deliver a fan experience that will match the world-class soccer on the pitch.

Another preseason Clasico, Barcelona-Real Madrid, coming to U.S. this summer

In what has become a burgeoning, money-making tradition , FC Barcelona and Real Madrid will bring their renowned rivalry to the United States for a second consecutive summer.

They'll play El Clasico, as its known, at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, on July 29, as part of the second-year Soccer Champions Tour.

It will be a preseason match, of course. The tour — which will also feature Manchester United , Arsenal , Juventus and AC Milan — is not a tournament like some of its predecessors were. It is essentially eight one-off games, smack-dab in the middle of the Women's World Cup, billed by organizers as a "summer series" that will span California, Las Vegas, Texas and Florida.

But the headliner is the game of all games, perhaps the world's most celebrated sporting rivalry, at the grandiose stadium of all grandiose stadiums, Jerry World, the 105,000-seat home of the Dallas Cowboys that aspires to host the 2026 World Cup final .

El Clasico comes to the U.S.

When Barca and Madrid first brought their blood feud to the U.S. in 2017, the concept was ridiculed by some purists; but the exhibition game, at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, was a roaring success. The Miami Clasico drew 1.7 million viewers on ESPN platforms and a sellout crowd willing to pay several hundreds of dollars apiece for tickets. Players competed, genuinely. A 3-2 Barcelona win thrilled everybody involved.

It felt, at the time, like a watershed moment for the International Champions Cup , the preseason event that grew to 18 teams and 27 games spread across nine countries late last decade. In early 2020, organizers were in negotiations to inaugurate Southern California’s SoFi Stadium with a second stateside Clasico that summer.

But then came COVID-19. The ICC canceled its 2020 programming, fizzled during the pandemic, and devolved into a legal dispute between its parent company, Relevent Sports, and its mastermind, the legendary soccer promoter Charlie Stillitano. The men's ICC has not been played since.

Relevent still runs a women’s ICC and other ventures. This summer, it is working with England 's Premier League and Spain 's La Liga on two separate North American tours. But in 2022, the Soccer Champions Tour swooped in for Barca and Madrid, and organized a Clasico at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. (Barca won, 1-0, in front of a boisterous, sellout crowd.)

In its second year, the Soccer Champions Tour has expanded to feature two clubs each from Spain, England and Italy . Sixth Street, a global investment firm that has partnered with both Barca and Real Madrid , is the company behind it. AEG is producing it. Legends is a key partner. And Stillitano, according to a source with knowledge of the tour's evolution, has been involved as a consultant.

Preseason tour schedules

The Soccer Champions Tour announced its full 2023 slate Friday:

Saturday, July 22: Barcelona vs. Juventus — Levi’s Stadium, Santa Clara, California

Wednesday, August 2: Juventus vs. Real Madrid — Camping World Stadium, Orlando

Kickoff times haven’t yet been determined. In their Friday news release, organizers said that “the matches remain subject to approval by the relevant football authorities,” but that is likely a formality.

Separately, Arsenal and Manchester United have organized a preseason friendly at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on July 22. United is also set to play Wrexham on July 25 in San Diego — presumably with a reserve team, because one day later, it is now scheduled to play Real Madrid in Houston. It then plays Borussia Dortmund on July 30 in Vegas .

Arsenal will also play the MLS All-Stars on July 19 in Washington, D.C.

The Premier League's own "summer series" will feature Chelsea , Newcastle, Aston Villa , Fulham , Brighton and Brentford, with games in Philadelphia, Atlanta, Orlando, New Jersey and Maryland.

• Manchester United

Soccer Champions Tour 2023 full schedule

The teams involved cannot all play each other as it isn't practical for each club's pre-season commitments. Manchester United will only play one game as part of the Soccer Champions Tour, while others will face more opponents.

Real and Barca look like the headliners of the tournament, playing four games each, more than anyone else.

The major fixture is El Clasico between Barcelona and Real Madrid in Texas, but Juventus vs AC Milan in a new setting will be interesting and there is always a certain allure about Real Madrid vs Man Utd.

This tournament was created by Sixth Street and there is a stated aim of spreading it to the women's game in the future.

"We are proud to be partnering with the world's most storied clubs, which have the world's strongest and most passionate supporters, to provide this rare opportunity for American fans to experience the game at the highest level," said Alan Waxman, co-founder and CEO at Sixth Street.

"While this year's tour consists of men's clubs, we look forward to expanding next summer to bring the world's best women's clubs to local audiences around the globe, and in the future to evolve this series into a format with real games of consequence."

How to watch the Soccer Champions Tour 2023

ESPN+ will be the home of the Soccer Champions Tour in the United States if you can't get to the games in person. As for Canada, DAZN is the place to be to see Man Utd, Barcelona, Real Madrid and the rest in action.

For fans in the United Kingdom, club-specific channels - which often require a subscription fee - are the way to go. Channels like Sky Sports and TNT Sports never tend to advertise friendlies of this nature.

FC Barcelona return to the United States for preseason tour

The FC Barcelona men’s first team will repeat the last season’s destination and travel once again to the United States for their preseason tour, BARÇA ON TOUR: US 2023, in which they will play a total of four matches, all against European opposition. The first two games will be played in California; 22 July against Juventus in Santa Clara, San Francisco Bay Area, and on 26 July against Arsenal FC. The last two games will take place in Dallas Texas, for the clash with Real Madrid on 29 July and in Las Vegas where the tour will conclude with a game against AC Milan.  

The US Summer Tour 2022 saw the Barça play on the East Coast with games in Miami and New York – as well as games in Las Vegas and Dallas – cities which hosted the majority of the Club’s institutional and social activities. This year the geographical emphasis has shifted to the West Coast where the majority of the Club’s activities will take place and where they will play three of their four scheduled games.  

The blaugranes’ debut on the tour will come on 22 July against Juventus in the Levis Stadium, Santa Clara in San Francisco, home of the NFL’s San Francisco 49ers. It will be the third time that Barça have played at the venue which has room for 68,000 fans following matches against Manchester United in 2015 and AC Milan in 2018. The most recent encounter between Barça and Juventus came in a friendly last season on tour, the game ended in a 2-2 draw.  

The other games in California will come against Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal side on 26 July in the SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Los Angeles, a venue opened in 2020 with a capacity of 70,000 and the ground where the Los Angeles Chargers and Los Angeles Rams of the NFL play their home matches. The fixture between the two sides will be their first in seven seasons, the last meeting having come in the last sixteen of the UEFA Champions League in 2016 in which Barça won 2-0 in London and 3-1 at Spotify Camp Nou. The game will also be the first on American soil between the two clubs.  

Another Clásico in Arlington, Texas  

The summer tour this year will also include one of the most awaited matches for the fans, the Clásico, the third meeting between Barça and Real Madrid in the USA. He game will take place at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas which has a capacity of 80,000 and is home to the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys. The venue is one that Barça have visited twice previously; in 2011 against Manchester United and in 2018 against AS Roma. In their two previous games against Real Madrid in the US, Barça have come out on top both times: winning 3-2 at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami in 2017 and 1-0 at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas in 2022.  

The Allegiant Stadium, which holds 65,000 fans, will be the venue for the final game of the tour for Xavi Hernández’s men against AC Milan, the third game on the west coast. The two teams have met on two previous occasions on US soil with a 2-0 win for Barça in 2003 in Washington and a 1-0 win for the Italians in 2018 in Santa Clara.

These four games during BARÇA ON TOUR: US 2023 are part of the Soccer Champions Tour, a tournament put together by Sixth Street in collaboration with Legends and AEG, and in which, aside from Barça and their four opponents on the tour, Manchester United will also be participating.  

The USA, a popular destination for blaugrana preseason  

This summer’s tour will be the 14 th in FC Barcelona history to the USA (the first in 1937 was key in the Club’s survival), a country that has become a popular destination in recent years with tours taking place in 2011, 2015, 2017, 2018, the latter being a joint tour with the women’s team, as well as 2019 and 2022.  

In fact, the North American market in a key priority for the globalisation and expansion the Barça brand. Football is undergoing a great period of growth in the USA that trend will hopefully continue with the next World Cup in 2026 taking place on North American soil. Furthermore, FC Barcelona opened a US office in New York in 2016 and continues its efforts to build a greater connection with its existing fans and win more followers and reach agreements with local sponsors to help develop even further the country’s footballing ecosystem.

Will USMNT star Christian Pulisic still be with Chelsea?

Christian Pulisic, the 24-year-old standout for the U.S. men's national team , is under contract with Chelsea  through the 2023-24 Premier League season. However, a mass exodus of players — including Pulisic — is expected this summer, according to ESPN . Since an ownership group led by American Todd Boehly took over in May 2022, Chelsea has experienced a chaotic existence . The club added 18 new players at a cost of approximately $650 million. The club fired manager Thomas Tuchel, then brought in a new manager in Graham Potter  on a five-year contract , only to fire him after 31 matches. Former England national team and Premier League star Frank Lampard was appointed interim manager  in April. 

All of that change has not helped on the pitch, as Chelsea — which won the UEFA Champions League just two years ago — currently sits in 11th place in the Premier League table. 

With Chelsea going through three managers in four years, Pulisic has been unable to secure a consistent starting position with the club. The influx of new players recently means Chelsea will be looking to offload the USMNT star, as well as other notable players such as strikers Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Romelu Lukaku (who is on loan at Inter Milan), midfielder Mateo Kovacic and defender Kalidou Koulibaly.

Who are other USMNT players in Premier League Summer Series?

Pulisic isn't the only USMNT player who could be participating in the Premier League Summer Series. Fulham features American defenders Tim Ream and Antonee Robinson, each of whom played significant roles for the USMNT at the 2022 World Cup. 

Busy summer of soccer in U.S.

The Premier League Summer Series will be competing for the American soccer fan's attention amid a number of competitions taking place this summer.

The women's World Cup kicks off on July 20, with the USWNT playing its first game on July 21 against Vietnam at 9 p.m. ET in Auckland, New Zealand.

On the heels of the completion of the CONCACAF Gold Cup on July 16, the Leagues Cup — a unique competition featuring every team in Major League Soccer and Mexico's Liga MX — kicks off on July 21 . The final of the Leagues Cup will be held on Aug. 19. 

While the NWSL will be taking a break in regular-season play during the women's World Cup , the league will be hold some games for its in-season tournament — the Challenge Cup — in late July and early August.

In addition, Wrexham AFC  — the fifth-tier Welsh soccer club owned by actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McIlhenney and subject of a popular documentary — will play a friendly against Manchester United  in San Diego on July 25.
