I'm trying to find a listing of any games any of the bigger European teams may be playing in the U.S. this year. Google has failed me.

My youngest is a big fan and I want to try to bring him to a game.

Thanks.

A lot of these exhibitions aren't going to be announced for a few months. Try searching again then.

The European schedule for most leagues is August-May, while in the US and the Scandinavian countries the schedule is March-October/November. European teams will come to the US for marketing purposes (duh) and for preseason friendlies, usually between June and July.

Clubs do preseason tours in the states during the summer.

Because none have been announced yet.

Try to bring him to an MLS match (note: when searching, "match" will help you much more than "game"). The players in an MLS match will actually be trying, which is not a guarantee in a friendly (the correct term for an "exhibition").

Thanks for the insight. I was beginning to worry games didn't happen every year.

They don't. But because it helps marketing, it's a good bet that at least a few will happen.
