It's become our summer ritual: international club friendlies from sea to shining sea.
And this year is no different, as the likes of Bayern Munich, Atlético Madrid, Manchester United, Arsenal, and Chivas de Guadalajara criss-cross the United States and Canada. On many occasions, they will play friendlies against MLS clubs.
Here are the biggest friendlies taking place over the next month or so, including Bayern's appearance in the 2014 AT&T MLS All-Star Game on August 6.
