Preview
United coach Jose Mourinho gets the chance to test his new recruits as he takes his squad to America for pre-season action.
Lukaku and Lindelof will be under the spotlight as major acquisitions, with both players expected to secure starting places in the season ahead.
The former Everton striker arrives as Zlatan Ibrahimovic departs, and he will be tasked to score the goals that bring silverware to the Theatre of Dreams.
Lukaku hit 25 goals in the Premier League last term, according to WhoScored.com, and he will hope to at least match those numbers in his first season under Mourinho in Manchester.
Lindelof should quickly develop into Eric Bailly's long-term partner at centre-back for United, but with Chris Smalling and Phil Jones both at the club, his competition will be plentiful.
According to James Phillips of the Daily Star, Mourinho has stated goalkeeping duties will be shared between David De Gea and rising prodigy Joel Pereira.
The Galaxy are on a three-game losing streak, conceding 11 goals in the process, and sit eighth in the MLS Western Conference after just one win at home during the campaign.
United move on to face Real Salt Lake in Utah on Monday, keen to put their players through the grind to get them ready for the Premier League.
The Red Devils face Real Madrid in the UEFA Super Cup on August 8 before beginning their Premier League season against West Ham United on August 13.
Mourinho won two major trophies and the Community Shield last term, but his team were inconsistent when it came to picking up three points on a weekly basis.
United want to challenge for the title this season, and they will have to score more goals if they believe they can become the champions of England.
