Tottenham and Manchester United will return to the United States this summer to compete in the 2018 International Champions Cup.

The two Premier League clubs, who both look set to finish in the top four, will be joined this year by German giants Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, and Spanish side Atletico Madrid.

Spurs chairman Daniel Levy said: "This summer's tour will be the sixth time in nine years that we have toured the US and we are all excited to be returning again later this year."

Manchester United posted on Twitter: "MUFC is excited to announce we will be playing in this summer's International Champions Cup as part of the Man Utd tour."

United beat Manchester City 2-0 in last year's tournament then drew 1-1 with Real Madrid and lost 1-0 to Barcelona, all the while finalising a dramatic deal to sign Romelu Lukaku from Everton.

Spurs beat Paris Saint-Germain 4-2 before losing to Roma 3-2 and then Manchester City 3-0.
