Liverpool will play an end-of-season friendly against Sydney FC next month.
Jurgen Klopp’s side are set to feature at the ANZ Stadium on May 24, just three days after their playing their final Premier League game of the campaign.
Ahead of the Reds’ 125th anniversary celebrations, which begin on June 3, a number of commemorative activities are also planned around the game.
Post-season friendlies were a regular occurrence in Liverpool’s history but have not participated in any since their 2014 win over Shamrock Rovers in Dublin.
They previously visited Australia as part of pre-season preparations in 2013, when they played in front of 95,000 fans at Melbourne’s MCG, and 2015.
And Klopp admits that he is relising the forthcoming game in New South Wales.
He said: “It will be my first time in Australia and we’re really looking forward to it.
“You play in Premier League away games and there are always a lot of fans there. Then you can have a little imagination of how big the club is.
“Then we were in the USA last year and you felt ‘OK, obviously there are a lot of supporters too!’ You need to feel it.
“All the people who did trips like this in the past told me: ‘When you go to another country you really see how big the club is.’
“For all of us, it’s exciting to see how many LFC fans are already there.
“I know it’s difficult for them to watch games, with the time difference and all that stuff, getting up at night or whenever.
“But they really want to be close to the club – so it’s our job to show yes, we are really close.”
