Football fans looking to catch a glimpse of Manchester United's upcoming clash with the Malaysian national team have been told that tickets are still available.

The reigning English Premier League champions are taking part in the game as part of their Asia Tour, which will also see them appear in locations including Jakarta, Seoul and Hangzhou in China.

Saturday July 18th is the first of these games and will be played against the Malaysian team in the National Stadium in Bukit Jalil, which is capable of holding 100,000 supporters.

However, fans can also pick up special passes to see a Manchester United training session in the same stadium on the day before the friendly.

ProEvents chief executive officer Julian Kam said: "We would like to encourage fans to come early, to ensure they get to the stadium on time to catch the training."

Sir Alex Ferguson's team visited Asia to take part in the FIFA Club World Cup last year in Japan, where they beat Columbian outfit LDU Quito in the final 1-0 thanks to Wayne Rooney's goal.
