According to a number of British media outlets, the official Premier League pre-season warm-up tournament in 2024 is expected to return to the Asian continent, which means that the long-discontinued Premier League Asia Cup may be about to be rekindled, but the probability of it being held in China is relatively low.
The Daily Mail further revealed that although the Premier League's pre-season tournament in the United States this summer was widely praised by all parties, the possibility of the Premier League organizing tournaments in the United States again next summer is not great. It is reported that due to the U.S. regional broadcaster NBC will broadcast the Paris Olympics next summer, can not take care of the Premier League pre-season broadcasting tasks, which led to the Premier League will give up in the United States to host pre-season, and turn their attention to Asia.
The Premier League has a wealth of experience in hosting pre-season tournaments in Asia. The Premier League Asia Cup has been held on a two-year cycle from 2003 to 2019, with Hong Kong hosting the tournament four times, making it the most frequent and successful city to host the tournament - in 2007, 2011, 2013 and 2017 - with every match being sold out. China has hosted twice, while Malaysia, Thailand and Singapore have each hosted once.
