United attending again this summer, 23rd-25th August.
Bayern, Galatasaray, Porto, Liverpool, Inter, Lyon & Real Sociedad the other participants.

Assuming the U19 tournament in Zagreb is the Mladen Ramlkaj Memorial that we took part in last year.

Does anyone know why going abroad and paying compensation for a player is cheaper than if a player is moving to another club in the same country?

Expecting Harrison and Williams to be involved. More than 1500 tickets sold, no live broadcast available.
Toughest group we've been drawn in so far. Three strong teams in their divisions. Best chance of getting through is that those teams prioritise promotion pushes in the league and rotate plenty in this comp.
Though most teams do that anyway, and these will probably have stronger squads -esp. Barnsley and Huddersfield, who'll likely be competing for promotion from league one again.
I don’t see that as a bad thing. Good challenges for the young lads and it’s not like U21 teams often go that far in the competition anyways.
Put last years u18s team in this competition and I’d say they have a good chance. Obviously some are in the US but the vast majority will be available.
I don’t think they would do that well against grown men at League One level.
I think they would honestly. The high pressing style would work very well against league 1 teams and this is an exceptional team.
We’ll see. Plenty of them will play in these games.
U16s are going on their Hong Kong tour again. They play two matches against local sides on the 9th & 11th August. Like last year, both games will be streamed on YouTube.
U18 fixtures have been released on the website. For the 3rd time in the last 4 seasons we play City away in the first game of the season. Liverpool at home follows that game.
Must be wanting us to get off to a shaky start giving the utter domination of last season
U21 fixtures are out too - https://www.premierleague.com/fixtures?team=U21&co=16&cl=1706
Start as they mean to go on with a game at the same time as the first team are playing (might be moved I guess)

Hong Kong squad:
GK: Zac Watson, Jake Ford?
DEF: Yuel Helafu, Jacob Watson, Jayden Ngwashi, Connor Thorley, Connor Laurie, Jaume Camacho
MID: Edward Ibrovic-Fletcher, Jay McEvoy, Harlem McLaughlin, Rafe McCormack, Jariyah Shah, Luca Scanlon
ATT: Junior Brown, Kai Rooney, Silva Mexes, Camron Mpofu, Jaedon Donkor, Noah Ajayi, JJ Gabriel
Believe this is correct. Ford is the only one I’m not 100% sure on. Reminder that some players won’t be fit to play and are just travelling for the experience.

Interesting squad.
A lot from that earlier youth tournament in NI.
I wish I'd got to see players like JJ Gabriel and Rooney - and new signings Mpofu and and Silva Mexes - playing in that. On the other hand, it was good to see the likes of the Nkoto twins, Mantato and Bradbury there (who I see all featured at the recent U19 tournament as well).

Jacob Watson in the upcoming England U16 squad that will face Italy
Congratulations to him.
We haven't got any outfielders in it, I see. With Chelsea and City having quite a few (though Liverpool none). Who would be the most likely of our outfielders from that age group do you think?
Thans for this, much appreciated!
He is an outfielder, you’re probably getting him mixed up with Zac Watson (no relation).
So whoever posted that original tweet got his last name wrong?
Yeah, they just misspelled it slightly.
Oh yeah, of course I was mixing up the Watson's. What an elementary mistake!
Ngwashi took part in their first training session which is good news, as he was on crutches after picking up an injury at the SuperCup.
Probably physically well developed for their age? That's one of the things that stands out for me when I watch their youth teams.
U21s are competing in the Premier League International Cup this season, which has now been expanded to 32 teams (16 English and 16 international).
We have been drawn in group C along with Fulham, Liverpool, Norwich, Sparta Prague, Nordsjælland, Hertha Berlin & PSV but we will only play the 4 international sides. Top two qualify for the knockout stages.
