“This will be a historic event for the club and the people of Western Sydney and we look forward to working in partnership wth the Stadium to bring this match to life.”
NSW Minister of Sport Stuart Ayres said as many as 5000 Leeds fans are expected to travel to Sydney for the historic match, joining many thousands of Wanderers fans who will be thrilled to see their team in action at the magnificent Western Sydney Stadium.
“This will be an occasion that every football fan in Western Sydney will want to be part of as the Wanderers line up against one of English football’s most famous clubs,” Minister Ayres said.
“The 30,000-seat Western Sydney Stadium is on track to open in April 2019 and Wanderers versus Leeds United will be a major sporting event in Western Sydney that will showcase the best live event experience in the country.
