The England manager Roy Hodgson is to head to the Brazilian city of Manaus on a fact-finding mission ahead of this summer's World Cup.
England face Italy at the Arena da Amazonia on 14 July, and Hodgson will travel to the north of the country next month.
Then on 18 February he will travel to the south-east corner of Brazil to attend the FIFA World Cup Workshop in Florianopolis - along with the 31 other managers headed for this summer's tournament.
Hodgson has already visited Brazil many times - most recently for the World Cup draw in December. He also visited group stage cities Sao Paulo and Belo Horizonte as well as the base camp city of Rio.
In Manaus Hodgson and the Club England managing director Adrian Bevington will be accompanied by the British ambassador to Brazil Alex Ellis.
They will visit the stadium where England face Italy as well as the team hotel, allocated to us by FIFA.
The delegation will also visit areas of local interest – both business and cultural.
