Bryan Mbeumo Shines in Manchester United's Preseason Finale vs AC Milan

Bryan Mbeumo’s eye-catching preseason tour with Manchester United has one final stage — a meeting with AC Milan in Poland that should feel a lot more like a dress rehearsal than a gentle warm-up.

The Red Devils face the Italian giants at the Tarczynski Arena in Wroclaw on Saturday, August 15, with kickoff set for 4:45 p.m. local time. It’s their last friendly before competitive action returns, and Mbeumo has turned it into his own showcase.

The forward has been ruthless so far, hitting three goals in two games against Atletico Madrid and PSG, then turning creator with an assist in the narrow outing against Leeds United. Every touch has pushed his case for a starring role once the real stuff begins.

On the other side, Christian Pulisic’s Milan arrive still carrying the sting of last season’s collapse in Serie A, a late slump that cost them a place in the coming Champions League campaign. Pulisic has only just rejoined the squad after his post-World Cup break, leaving his involvement in this friendly uncertain, but his presence around the camp is a reminder of the quality Milan can call upon.

For fans in the United States, the matchup is easy to find. The game will be shown live on beIN Sports, with streaming available via fubo and beIN Sports Connect. fubo is offering a free trial to new subscribers, giving viewers a chance to sample the service and its slate of live sports channels before committing.

A summer tune-up? Technically, yes. But with Mbeumo flying, Milan trying to reset after a bruising year, and the season looming, this night in Wroclaw carries a sharper edge than most preseason dates.
