AC Milan, Inter and Juventus to play pre-season games in Perth

Serie A had been in talks to stage a game between ‌AC Milan and Como ⁠in Perth ‌in February, but called it off in December, citing conditions imposed by the Asian Football Confederation.

The game would have been the first major European ⁠domestic league ​fixture to be played outside its home country.

AC Milan take on Inter Milan on August 5th ‌Inter then face Juventus three days later and Juventus play Serie B side Palermo on August 11th.

Western Australia Tourism Minister Reece Whitby said that the games would be a boost to the tourist sector.

"We ‌are consistently seeing the positive ​impact these major events have ‌on our communities - boosting our tourism sector, supporting local jobs and businesses, and diversifying Western Australia's economy," Whitby said ⁠on Thursday.
