Preview
The giants of the Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga and Serie A are present as the fifth edition of the competition takes place across the globe.
There will be a set of unique matches taking place as the Manchester derby and El Clasico feature on American soil.
Manchester United are set to give debuts to new signings Romelu Lukaku and Victor Lindelof, with France international Paul Pogba also in manager Jose Mourinho's squad.
Lukaku is the Red Devils' major summer signing, and he will be expected to fire United back into the top four after a disappointing league campaign last term.
However, United made it back into the UEFA Champions League after winning the Europa League, giving their squad the competition they desire.
According to Sacha Pisani of Goal, Ronaldo was excluded from Los Blancos' squad for the trip to America, but Barca have included their MSN trinity of Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar.
PSG have won the competition for the past two seasons, with Real and United also former winners of the tournament.
Even though there is a trophy at the end of the scheduled matches, teams will be preoccupied with blooding talent and getting their top stars into full fitness.
New signings could join up with any of the sides, as they remain active in the transfer market throughout July.
