Liverpool to face Bayern Munich in pre-season friendly?

The organisers of the Audi Cup have reportedly placed Liverpool under consideration for a place in the tournament during the summer.

The pre-season competition - which takes place every two years - features four teams, including hosts Bayern Munich, with each club guaranteed two games in two days.

According to the Liverpool Echo, there is a possibility of Liverpool being included, which would provide Jurgen Klopp with the opportunity of facing a familiar match-up with Bayern after previously going head to head with the Bundesliga giants during his time with Borussia Dortmund.

The two sides have only met once in a competitive match since 1981, with the European Super Cup final being contested in 2001.

The tournament is scheduled to take place on August 1 and August 2.
