The two sides were paired together in the draw on Monday in a tie that will see Simeone return to the San Siro, where he spent two years as a player for Inter Milan.

"It is a nice game – one of the most important ones we'll play. They are a great team who have won a lot of European Cups," he told reporters at a press conference.

"It'll be played in a great stadium, somewhere that I'm used to!"
