Man City have announced their plans to open a brand new state of the art academy in Thailand. Man City, controlled by ex-Thai prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra, signed three Thai players last week.
The club, controlled by ousted Thai Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, said Kiatprawut Saiwaew, Suree Sukha and Teerasil Dangda would train with City on their return from international duty before being loaned out.
All three had trials with City in August before representing their home country in the Asian Cup tournament.
Manchester City academy manager Jim Cassell, in Thailand with coach Sven Goran Eriksson, said that he was looking at suitable sites for the academy.
"Dr Thaksin wants to spread Manchester City's global profile and is also keen to give young Thai footballers every opportunity of developing to their full potential," Cassell said.
