English Premier League giants Liverpool will play Malaysia\'s national side, the current ASEAN champions, in Kuala Lumpur on July 16, organisers said Monday. The announcement means Liverpool will join leading English sides Arsenal and Chelsea in touring football-mad Malaysia in July as they warm-up for next season and tap the lucrative Asian football market. The three EPL teams will play at the 87,000-capacity Bukit Jalil Stadium in the capital Kuala Lumpur and are expected to draw fans from across the region. Julian Kam, chief executive officer of Proevents, the organiser of the event, told AFP that the Liverpool team will arrive in the capital Kuala Lumpur on July 14. \"The visiting Liverpool team will consist of players who will play in the new season,\" he said when asked if stars such as Steven Gerrard will be in action in Malaysia. \"We expect fans from neighbouring Singapore, Indonesia and Thailand to flood the Bukit Jalil stadium,\" he added. The Liverpool team then leave for China after their three-day stay in Malaysia. Kam said fans will be able to watch Liverpool practice and have close-up access to the players.
