Barcelona sporting director Andoni Zubizarreta says that he cannot wait to face Manchester City in the Champions League.

Barcelona sporting director Andoni Zubizarreta has admitted that he cannot wait for the Spanish outfit to face Manchester City in the Champions League.

The La Liga champions were drawn against the Premier League side in the last-16 stage of the competition on Monday in arguably the tie of the round.

"It's a great tie, with players we know well, because they have played in La Liga. It's a top level duel," he told reporters.

"We're both teams who attack very well and with lots of talent in midfield and attack. Also, we know people like Yaya Touré and Txiki Begiristain well.

"A few years ago, if you'd have said we were going to play a great tie in Manchester, we would have thought about United, but now we have a very tough one against City."

The competition resumes in February.
