Liverpool legend Sami Hyypia will make an emotional return to Anfield this Sunday – and tickets are still available for our final pre-season friendly against Bayer Leverkusen.
Istanbul hero Hyypia spent 10 glittering years with the Reds before departing for Leverkusen, where he started as a player before becoming a coach.
The Finn was appointed manager this summer after taking over as caretaker boss in April.
Liverpool supporters are sure to afford a warm reception to one of the Reds' greatest ever signings, who made 464 appearances after arriving in 1999.
He went on to captain the club, score 35 goals and help re-establish Liverpool as a European force.
Hyypia's medal cache includes the Champions League, the UEFA Cup, two UEFA Super Cups, two FA Cups and two League Cups.
Away from Sami's return, the match will be Liverpool's final warm-up game before the start of the 2012-13 campaign and one new manager Brendan Rodgers will be treating as an ideal opportunity to prepare his side for the trip to West Bromwich Albion.
