Edwin van der Sar can't wait to return to the continent of United's recent Club World Cup triumph when the Reds head out on a pre-season tour of Asia.

United were in Japan in December to become the first English team to be named World champions, and van der Sar is looking forward to returning to perform in front of the Reds' loyal Far East fanbase this month.

"The last time we were in Asia was a great occasion because we became world champions and everyone is looking forward to going out there again this week," Edwin told ManUtd.com.

Old Trafford is full most weeks with die-hard Reds from closer to home, but Edwin says these summer trips are an opportunity for equally devoted United fans from around the globe to see the Reds up close.

"It’s a great feeling to see the joy on people’s faces when we’re in Asia," he says.

"The fans are so fanatical and dedicated – some wait outside our hotel all day and night. Many of them don’t get the chance to see us very often so it’s great that we can over there and visit them."
