United fans in Ireland will be in for a treat on Wednesday, 4 August, when a quintet of senior players make their first club appearance of the summer.
Four World Cup players - Wayne Rooney, Michael Carrick, Ji-sung Park and Nemanja Vidic - plus Antonio Valencia, on his way back from an ankle injury, will be in the squad for the match against Airtricity League XI at Dublin's new Aviva Stadium.
All five missed the Reds' tour of North America and the subsequent friendly in Mexico so Wednesday's game will be a key step in their preparation for the new 2010/11 season.
Javier 'Chicharito' Hernandez will also be in United's squad for the Dublin match, which comes just four days prior to the Community Shield clash with Chelsea at Wembley.
The Reds then open the Barclays Premier League campaign with a Monday-night home game against Newcastle United on 16 August.
