United eye African tour
Manchester United chief executive David Gill revealed the club may embark on a pre-season trip to Africa at some stage in the future and admitted a tour of Asia this summer made more sense commercially than a tour of the United States.
The Red Devils have been bowled over by the fanatical reaction of supporters on their Far East tour – before, during and after their game against FC Seoul in the South Korean capital on Friday in particular – and Gill intimated that Africa was now in their thoughts for a future pre-season campaign.
