HONG KONG, March 31 (Xinhua) -- The Kai Tak Sports Park, which opened in March 2025, will host its inaugural international football event next July, featuring Premier League clubs Liverpool, Arsenal, and Tottenham Hotspur, alongside Serie A's AC Milan.

Liverpool will play AC Milan on July 26, five days before Arsenal takes on Tottenham in a North London derby on Asian soil.

The Reds' match against the Italian giant Milan will be the first football fixture played at the 50,000-capacity Kai Tak Stadium, which opened on March 1.

Liverpool previously travelled to Hong Kong for pre-season in 2017. Tottenham came to the Chinese city in a 2017 friendly, while Arsenal is returning for the first time since 2012.

It will be the first time for Milan to visit Hong Kong since 2004.
