Sir Alex Ferguson's senior stars are on duty in the Far East this weekend as they continue their tour with a game against Chinese outfit Hangzhou Greentown.
“We are really seeing this as a great test for our youngsters,” said Solskjaer. “Norwich is a club with good traditions and I have of course heard loads about the history from Aage Hareide my coach both for my old club Molde and for the Norwegian national team.
“We will have a young team out there as the more experienced ones are likely to go on tour with the first team, but I expect them all to give a good account of themselves.”
Tickets for the match are now on general sale, priced �10 for adults, �5 for under 21s and over 60s and �3 for under 16s.
