Manchester City to face Melbourne City in friendly

Manchester City have added a fixture against Melbourne City to their preparations for next season.

Last year's Premier League runners-up had already announced plans to spend 11 days in Australia ahead of International Champions Cup fixtures against Real Madrid and Roma respectively.

However, they will now play an extra match during their time Down Under against sister club Melbourne, with the contest taking place at the CBus Super Stadium on July 18.

Ahead of that game, City will also play a behind-closed-doors friendly with Adelaide United.
