Man City in bid to win over Asian fans with 13 new languages

Several Premier League clubs with global support translate their information into other languages, with Arsenal offering four and Manchester United six.

Aston Villa have a Chinese site to cater for fans there.

But Man City have gone a step further by advising people on its homepage they can read information in languages including Indonesian, Portuguese, Chinese and Bahasa Melayu, which is spoken in Singapore and Brunei.

Manchester is said to be the language capital of the UK with more than 200 different dialects spoken in the city. A recent survey found half of people living there were multi-lingual.

Last night a Manchester City club spokesman was unavailable for comment.
