Liverpool will also take on Sevilla at Fenway Park on July 21, before concluding its Stateside tour with a game against Sporting CP at Yankee Stadium three days later.

Klopp's side is chasing its first top-flight title since 1990 and sits two points above second-placed Manchester City, which plays its game in hand away at neighbour Manchester United on Wednesday.

Klopp's men have three Premier League games remaining and meet Barcelona in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final next Wednesday.
