RB Leipzig commercial director of sport, Florian Scholtz: “We’re going to face one of the best in the world. Man City is a big challenge, but also exciting and very attractive. Pep Guardiola has Erling Haaland, Kevin De Bruyne, numerous top stars and is one of the favorites.
We already know Man City from the last UCL season and not only recently proved against Real Madrid that on a very good day, we can also beat the absolute top teams, can survive.”
The first leg of the 1/8 finals will be played on 14-15 February and 21-22 February, with the return leg on 7-8 March and 14-15 March.
