English Premier League side Everton Football Club has announced that they will visit the West African country, Ghana, as part of their 2009 pre-season schedule. The trip will see the Club break new ground as it will be the first time in the 131 year history that an Everton side has traveled to Western Africa.
The opposition is yet to be confirmed but will either be Asante Kotoko or Hearts of Oak. The decision about which team the Blues will face is to be made through a public vote in Africa.
The Manager of the side, David Moyes, will travel without the majority of his international players as they will be on an extended summer break due to the fact they have been representing their various countries.
