Man United vs Fiorentina form
Before welcoming Fiorentina, Man United fans received very good news. The Red Devils are preparing to successfully detonate the "blockbuster" Benjamin Sesko. It would not be too surprising if the Slovenian striker also appeared in the stands of Old Trafford to admire his new teammates in action.
After a lackluster performance in the 0-1 loss to the Southeast Asian All-Stars, Man United showed a more positive side in their summer tour. Coach Ruben Amorim's team defeated Hong Kong (China) 3-1 and drew 0-0 with Leeds United.
In the trip to the US, the Red Devils defeated West Ham 2-1, won Bournemouth 4-1 and drew Everton 2-2 to become champions of the Premier League Summer Series. Of course, winning a tournament that is only a friendly does not say much.
But at least the team's cohesive and passionate play still brings an optimistic outlook.
With the addition of very high-quality players on the attack line such as Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo or Sesko, the Red Devils are expected to achieve much more positive results than last year's disastrous season.
The clash with Fiorentina is considered a dress rehearsal for Man United before the new season. Because just 1 week later, Amorim's team will welcome arch-rivals Arsenal in the opening round of the 2025/26 Premier League.
To boost their morale for the big match, the Red Devils certainly want to find victory. This is considered an easy task for Bruno Fernandes and his teammates because the opponent from Serie A has had a poor performance recently.
Fiorentina started the 2025 summer campaign with two consecutive victories. However, The Viola's "blue team" was only a flyweight team in the lower Italian leagues such as Grossetto or Carrarese 1908.
In the two subsequent tests with tougher opponents, the team under coach Stefano Pioli quickly revealed many weaknesses.
Before Leicester City, Fiorentina were rated higher but lost 2-0. Meanwhile, in the next clash with Nottingham Forest, the Florence team also played somewhat inferiorly and was lucky to leave the field with a goalless draw.
In terms of transfers, Fiorentina brought in Artemio Franchi 3 new faces, including: Simon Sohm, Nicolo Fagioli and Edin Dzeko.
While Dzeko has long been on the decline of his career, only Italy international Fagioli has received expectations, although this midfielder has also been somewhat disappointing in Juventus' shirt last season.
