Europa League last-32 draw: Manchester United, Arsenal, Wolves, Rangers and Celtic discover knockout stage opponents

All five British sides playing in the Europa League have made it through to the knockout rounds after successful group stage campaigns.

Celtic, Arsenal and Manchester United topped their respective groups to be seeded in Monday’s last-32 draw, with Rangers and Wolves finishing runners-up to be among the unseeded teams.

The draw, which took place after the Champions League last-16 draw, also included European heavyweights such as Sevilla, Porto, Wolfsburg and Roma.

Wolves, who were losing finalists in the first ever UEFA Cup in 1972, were first out the pot, being drawn with Espanyol of LaLiga.

Their Premier League rivals Arsenal face a tricky trip to Greece to face Olympiakos before welcoming the Athens club back to north London, while Manchester United come up against Belgian outfit Club Brugge.

Scottish Premiership outfits and Old Firm rivals Celtic and Rangers were drawn against Copenhagen and Braga respectively.

The first legs of the last-32 matches will take place on February 20, with the return fixtures a week later on February 27.

Other notable ties include Getafe vs Ajax, Roma vs Gent and Internazionale against Ludogorets.

Bayer Leverkusen face Porto and fellow Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt will play Red Bull Salzburg, who finished behind Liverpool and Napoli in their Champions League group.

Ajax, Roma and Inter Milan also failed to qualify for the Champions League knockout phase.
