United round off their Stateside tour with a game against the Seagulls in Harrison, New Jersey, with Ukraine-born official Demianchuk appointed to oversee the fixture.

Demianchuk has been based in the United States for a decade after moving from his homeland, where he had studied law.

He became a professional referee in 2014 and has been a regular in Major League Soccer in recent years, while he has also taken charge of a number of National Women's Soccer League matches as well in addition to his commitments in the men's game.

Earlier this year, Demianchuk refereed the PTFC For Peace charity game between Portland Timbers and Thorns, with proceeds aiding UNICEF's response to the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine.
