Barcelona coach Ernesto Valverde reacted to the draw of the round-of-16 of the Champions League on Monday.

The Spanish giants have be drawn against struggling Italian side Napoli.

Despite their struggles in Serie A – Napoli is currently 8th – and their recent change of manager, the Spanish coach is careful not to underestimate their future opponent: “They gained a lot of points in their group. They defeated Liverpool and tied in Anfield. I think they are a complicated rival with a great support from their fans at their stadium.”

The games will take place on February 25 and March 18 2020, with the second leg being played at Camp Nou.
