Liverpool to play a friendly match against Yokohama F. Marinos

• Liverpool is preparing for a friendly match in Japan.
• The match will take place despite previous announcements regarding ticket prices.
• Hugo Ekitike may debut for the squad.

Liverpool will play a friendly match against Yokohama F. Marinos in Japan on Wednesday, July 30, 2025, following previous announcements regarding ticket prices. The match is scheduled for 11:30 AM BST at the Nissan Stadium in Yokohama.

This decision comes despite the fact that earlier this week, a land deal worth 8.8 billion rubles in the Russian Far East was announced, which led to previous announcements regarding ticket prices in Japan. Following this announcement, the island of Hokkaido in northern Japan was affected.

The Liverpool team, under the management of Arne Slot, is preparing for the match after a 4-2 defeat to AC Milan in Gonkong. New signing Hugo Ekitike, who joined the club from Eintracht Frankfurt for 79 million pounds, may debut in this match.

The team is also part of Liverpool's preparations for the 2025/26 season and the upcoming Community Shield match against Crystal Palace. After the game with Yokohama, the team will return to Great Britain for another friendly match against Athletic Club on August 4.
