Liverpool FC will be traveling to Asia this summer for their 2009 preseason tour.
The Reds will play in Singapore, Bangkok and Hong Kong between July 17-26, 2009. No ticket news has been revealed as of press time, but it looks likely that Liverpool will play the Thai national team in Bangkok. Thailand is managed by Liverpool-born Peter Reid.
Liverpool are also negotiating to play the Singapore national team, and a team from Hong Kong.
The last time Liverpool visited North America was five years ago in 2004.
