Celtic FC, the Glasgow soccer club that has dominated the Scottish Premiership for more than a decade, will play a friendly against D.C. United on July 20 at Audi Field, organizers said Tuesday.

The visit is part of a preseason tour that will include two additional matches in the United States — one against Manchester City on July 23 in Chapel Hill, N.C., and another against Chelsea on July 27 in South Bend, Ind. Tickets to the D.C. match go on sale to the general public March 27. The game is included in full season ticket packages.
