West Ham's pre-season tour of Australia set for July CANCELLED due to the coronavirus pandemic

West Ham have announced that their planned pre-season tournament in Australia, which was also due to feature Crystal Palace, has been cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic.

West Ham were due to take part in the EVA Air Queensland Champions Cup in July.

London rivals Palace and A-League outfit Brisbane Roar, managed by Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler, were also lined up to take part in the inaugural tournament. The warm-up event has now been scrapped though West Ham plan to work with the organisers to see if a new date can be rearranged.
