Liverpool FC have confirmed they will return to Thailand in July to kick off their pre-season campaign.

The Reds will meet the True Thai Premier League All Stars at the Rajamangala Stadium in Bangkok on July 14.

It will be the club’s sixth visit to the Thai capital and begins a tour of Asia and Australia which also includes Brisbane, Adelaide and Kuala Lumpur.

Liverpool beat the Thailand national team 3-0 two years ago, and midfielder Joe Allen says it was an eye-opener to somebody new to the club.

Allen said: “I’m very excited. I obviously had the pleasure of going there in 2013 and it was a real eye-opener for me.

“I’d heard about the fantastic support but to get out there and experience it first-hand was special. I’d been told about it so I thought I was prepared for it.

“But even though I’d been warned about how much support was there and how fanatical they were, I was still taken aback when we got there. So I’m looking forward to more of the same.

“I’ll never forget it. From the minute we arrived - whether we were at the hotel, travelling to training or the match, inside and outside the stadium - everywhere we went the fans were passionate.

“You can see how much the club means to them, so it’s great for us to get out there and see them in person. I’m thrilled to be returning.”
