The Blues are heading east for pre-season for the first time this decade. We visited Japan in 2019 and the year before spent time in Perth in western Australia.

It is in Australia that this season’s tour begins, with the Blues travelling to Sydney for a pair of games. We will take on local side Western Sydney Wanderers at the Accor Stadium on Tuesday 28 July, before meeting London rivals Tottenham at the same venue on Saturday 1 August.

The next stop is Hong Kong, where we last played in 2011. The Blues will go head-to-head with Juventus as part of the Hong Kong Football Festival at the recently-opened Kai Tak Stadium (pictured top) on Wednesday 5 August.

Then it’s over to Jakarta, the Indonesian capital, for a game against another Italian side, AC Milan, at the GBK Stadium. That fixture is on Saturday 8 August.

The tour concludes with a fixture in the Malaysian city of Iskandar Puteri. We will face local side Johor Darul Ta'z, the reigning Malaysian Super League champions, at their iconic Sultan Ibrahim Stadium. The fixture takes place on Tuesday 11 August with an 8pm kick-off local time.
