Newcastle United is reportedly making significant strides towards organizing a thrilling pre-season tour in the Far East, with plans for an exciting showdown against Liverpool in Hong Kong. This promising news has emerged from The Daily Mail’s seasoned journalist, Craig Hope.

According to insider information, the Magpies are actively exploring potential facilities in Hong Kong to host this electrifying encounter. The buzz surrounding the tour has intensified as Liverpool is also set to embark on a trip to the region, leading to speculation about a much-anticipated rematch of the Carabao Cup final at the impressive new Kai Tak Sports Park in Kowloon.

In an intriguing twist, several other elite clubs, including Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal, and AC Milan, have also initiated discussions with the tournament organizers, eyeing the state-of-the-art 50,000-seater stadium as their battleground. Imagine the excitement of seeing some of Europe's football giants clash in this vibrant city known for its rich culture and passionate sports fans!

While no official announcements have been made yet, the growing excitement stems from Newcastle's realization that they will not be participating in the Premier League's Summer Series in the United States. This pre-season shift opens the door for the Magpies to showcase their talents on an international stage in Asia, captivating fans who are eager to see their beloved team live.

In addition to the Hong Kong venture, manager Eddie Howe’s squad is also expected to make a return to the adidas headquarters in Herzogenaurach, Germany, for pre-season training, following the successful preparations from last summer. This combination of international exposure and rigorous training could set the stage for a formidable upcoming season for Newcastle United.
