Former English soccer great Sir Bobby Charlton said Tuesday the standard of Asian soccer has improved significantly and he hopes Manchester United will sign a player from this region.

"Asia is not a joke any more," Charlton, a Manchester United director and former star player, told a news conference in Hong Kong to promote the club's exhibition match against Hong Kong on July 23.

"You see what happened with Korea, with Japan . . . it's possible to beat the best teams in the world if you are coached correctly and you are prepared properly."

Charlton, who also played on England's World Cup winning side in 1966, said he wants Manchester United to sign an Asian player and believes it eventually will.

"One day, there will be a player that plays for Manchester United who comes from this part of the world," Charlton said.

Charlton promised a full team for the exhibition against Hong Kong, barring injuries, saying fans can expect Rio Ferdinand, Ryan Giggs, Roy Keane and Cristiano Ronaldo.
