Malaysia to host Manchester City in July

It will be City's first fixture in Malaysia when they play at the 90,000 capacity Bukit Jalil Stadium (pictured) on July 30.

"We are very honoured to be hosting Manchester City, as we are the only Southeast Asian country given this opportunity," Football Association of Malaysia deputy president Tengku Abdullah Sultan Ahmad Shah said in a statement.

FA Cup holders Manchester City and Arsenal will also play against each other at Beijing's Bird's Nest stadium on July 27, the same day as the Olympic Games opening ceremony in London.
