Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson is relishing the chance to face the likes of Manchester United when his side tour the United States this summer.
The League Two side jet off to the US next week as they prepare to tour the country of their Hollywood owners, Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney. The pair have seen the status of their club sky-rocket thanks to a high-profile documentary, which has led to major coverage across the pond.
Wrexham face United in San Diego on July 26, although the Reds are expected to field an academy side. Erik ten Hag's first-team face Real Madrid in Houston the following day.

But speaking after his side's final training session back in Wales, Parkinson detailed his excitement as the prospect of facing such sides.
“Today was the important part," he told Wrexham's in-house media. "The lads are doing running now, and then going to the gym. It’s about making sure the work is right. It was an important day, and just as important as Chelsea will be and Manchester United.
“It’s incredible for the club to have a tour of this magnitude, it’s important in many ways, especially commercially but we’re focused on working hard to come back in the best possible shape for the Milton Keynes game."
