Park Ji-Sung's JS Foundation to hold charity game in Thailand in May or June
Manchester United's South Korean star will be part of the second ever Asian Dream Cup to be held in Thailand this year, as part of promotion football to youngsters in the region
By Ben Somerford
The Manchester United midfielder's charity foundation, which was founded in February last year, held its inaugural Asian Dream Cup in Vietnam last June.
Players such as Jong Tae-Se, Kazuyoshi Miura and Hidetoshi Nakata were involved in the inaugural Asian Dream Cup and similar big-name appearances are expected for this year's event.
The aim of Park's foundation is to promote football in South-East Asia, in particular for youth to get involved in the game.
More than 15,000 fans attended last year's game at Ho Chi Minh City's Thong Nhat Stadium where local club Navibank Saigon defeated JS' Friends 4-3.
