. Match time is scheduled for 20:00 local time (19:00 BST).
Tottenham Hotspur FC had previously announced on May 20 that it would be traveling to South Korea this summer for a preseason tour, and the team will also face Bayern Munich on August 3rd. The match between Tottenham and K League Stars is an important part of its trip to South Korea.
The K-League Stars will be led by Hong Myung-bo, the head coach of last season's K-League champions Ulsan Hyundai, and the squad will be determined through a combination of fan voting and head coach selection. This means that Seoul FC's England player Lingard is expected to be included in the star team, adding more intrigue to the game.
Hong Myung-bo said, "I am very happy to participate in this series with the K-League players this year, and we will do our best to bring a memorable game to our fans."
