City will cross the Atlantic at the end of May to take on Chelsea at the famous Busch Stadium in St Louis.
It will be the first-ever international football match to take place at Iconic 46,861 capacity stadium in Missouri and marks a rare opportunity for the Blues to play in front of the growing, passionate fan base in the States.
The 2012-13 Premier League champions will take on the 2012-13 Champions of Europe on Thursday, May 23rd at 7.30pm CST.
It is a first return to the USA for City since 2011’s pre-season tour, when they took on LA Galaxy, Vancouver Whitecaps and Club America of Mexico City and the latest trip has caught the imagination of the hosts.
“For two days in May our baseball heaven will be transformed into an international soccer haven,” commented Bill DeWitt III, President of the St Louis Cardinals who are proud to call Busch Stadium home.
