Liverpool will tour the United States next summer and are exploring the possibility of facing their former captain Steven Gerrard by playing a friendly against LA Galaxy.
Chief executive Ian Ayre has confirmed that that the Reds will return to the States as part of their preseason programme for 2016-17, having visited in 2012 and 2014.
No fixtures for the tour have yet been finalised, but a match against Galaxy is under consideration.
That raises the possibility of Gerrard facing the club he served as a first-team player for 17 years before leaving in May to move to Major League Soccer.
Ayre, who has been in the United States during the international break on a business trip, told BBC Sport: "That's something we definitely have on our radar of ideas.
"Steven's back in Liverpool at the moment, so I'm sure we'll get a chance to catch up with him and see what he thinks about that as an idea.
"But it's brilliant that we've got Steven in the U.S. market because he's been such a great servant to Liverpool.
"For him to be over here, we hope telling people how great the club are if they don't already know, can only be good for us."
In recent years, Liverpool have alternated their preseason tours between North America and Australasia.
Ayre has confirmed that this pattern will continue next summer, with the Reds returning to the States after visiting Thailand, Australia and Malaysia during preseason this year.
The chief executive said that the shorter travel times between the United Kingdom and the United States make it a more sensible choice for next year, with many players likely to return to training late after competing at Euro 2016.
He said: "We'll come to the U.S. next summer for certain. We don't yet have confirmation of where. We're trying to look at maybe the West Coast as well as a little bit on the East Coast.
"We've typically done the East Coast in the past, so maybe we'll do the West Coast this time. But we're still negotiating with various people about who we'll play and where we'll play.
"We try to come to this part of the world in the tournament years, when there's a European Championship or a World Cup.
"That's because the players come back a little bit later in those years and it's not so far. We try to balance the requirements preseason -- which is a very important time for the manager and the players -- with not travelling too far.
"The U.S. has great transport links and great communications. So we'll be very excited. We've done it before and we always get a great reception, so we'll look forward to it."
