AS Roma will kick off this summer’s International Champions Cup with a match against Paris Saint-Germain in Detroit on July 19.

The match - scheduled for 20:00 ET and to be broadcast on ESPN2 in the United States - will be the first ever professional football match held at Comerica Park, home of the Detroit Tigers.

The game against PSG in Michigan will be the first of three ICC matches for Roma in the U.S. this summer, with ties against Tottenham Hotspur on July 25 at Red Bull Arena and Juventus at the Gillette Stadium on July 30 completing the schedule.

The match in Detroit will mark the start of the International Champions Cup’s fifth season – with PSG returning as the reigning champions of the ICC.

For Roma, it will be a second successive summer visit to the United States, having defeated Liverpool in St. Louis in 2016, and a third appearance in the ICC, after competing in the 2014 and 2015 editions of the tournament.

Comerica Park, which has served as the home to the Detroit Tigers since 2000, is no stranger to big events having hosted the World Series in 2006 and 2012, the 76th MLB All-Star Game in 2005 as well as concerts featuring Paul McCartney, The Rolling Stones, Eminem and Jay Z.

However, Roma v PSG will be the first time it has delivered a European football match to local fans with tickets starting as low as $25 going on sale to the general public on May 16.

“We are excited to bring two of the best in international soccer to Comerica Park and The District Detroit as part of the ICC,” said Charlie Stillitano, chairman of Relevent Sports. “Both Roma and PSG have achieved continued success in Italian and French football respectively and will be looking to add to their trophy case this summer. Showcasing the best that international soccer has to offer in a city so rich in sports history is a dream come true for our organisation.

"We look forward to hosting these clubs at Comerica Park to kick off the 2017 tournament and providing an atmosphere that the people of Detroit will absolutely want to be a part of.”
