Liverpool and Wrexham to Clash at Yankee Stadium in Historic Friendly

Premier League giants meet one of the world’s oldest clubs in a high‑profile summer exhibition

A transatlantic soccer spectacle is set to unfold on July 29 when Liverpool FC meets Wrexham A.F.C. at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx, bringing a slice of English football heritage to one of New York’s most iconic venues.

A historic encounter in the Bronx

The match, scheduled for a 6 p.m. ET kickoff, will pit the Premier League’s storied Liverpool against the historic Welsh side, whose roots trace back to 1863, making it one of the oldest clubs still active in the sport.

Tickets for the exhibition go on sale to the public on Wednesday, with the most affordable seats priced at $107. For those seeking a premium view, a seat one row behind the field in Section 29 commands a starting price of $634.

The fixture also highlights the growing partnership between American entertainment and Welsh football. Actors Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds, who acquired Wrexham in 2020, have helped elevate the club’s profile and financial footing, turning a lower‑division team into a global brand.

Liverpool’s participation underscores the appeal of such cross‑continental friendlies, offering fans in the United States a rare chance to see a top‑flight English side live on home soil. The game forms part of a broader summer tour that sees several Premier League clubs test the U.S. market.
