LONDON: Manchester United's pre-season tour of China this month, when they face Manchester City and Borussia Dortmund, will give the players an opportunity to forge a close bond, manager Jose Mourinho has said.
United's first game under Mourinho will be against last season's Bundesliga runners-up Dortmund in the International Champions Cup in Shanghai on July 22.
The 53-year-old Portuguese manager will also renew hostilities with old adversary Pep Guardiola, who replaced Manuel Pellegrini as City's manager, on June 25.
"I hope to see a group, from an emotional point of view, coming together and getting to k**w each other better and understanding each other better," Mourinho said in an interview with adidas' Front Row.
"It's important from a football point of view, but also from a human qualities point of view, that's very important. I think the pre-season tours are also for the club dimension."
United will take on Premier League champions Leicester City in the annual Community Shield game at Wembley on Aug. 7. The 20-times English league winners begin their league campaign with a trip to Bournemouth on Aug. 14.
