SINGAPORE: Despite not winning the English Premier League title, Liverpool still won over hearts with their entertaining football this season.
And now Singaporean fans will get to see their heroes when Liverpool play at the National Stadium on July 26.
The Liverpool team, with the likes of Michael Owen, last visited Singapore in 2001.
The Reds’ return trip to the island and another one in Thailand will be used as a tune—up for the new 2009/2010 season.
However, fans will have to pay a premium to catch the Reds. They will have to fork out S$88 for each of the 50,000 gallery and lower grandstand seats, while seats in the upper grandstand will go for S$188.
But the trip is not just about commercial gains, as some young local footballers will get to train with the team when they are here.
Ian Ayre, Commercial Director, Liverpool FC, said: "It’s a place where we know we have a lot of fans, so it means more than just turning up and playing a pre—season game. It is part of the foundation of continuing to build what is already a great club and great fan base.
"Obviously, we want to grow that and we want to be more touchable, and 'feel—able’ and interact with our fans all over the world."
