Roma's CEO, Galantic, who was appointed at the end of July, has spoken about the draw, stating that all teams are difficult and that there are some exciting games ahead. He believes Roma are stronger than last season, and that the team will be ready for the challenge. The Giallorossi will face two of their ex-coaches, José Mourinho and Luis Enrique, in the competition, as well as teams such as Sporting CP, Manchester United, and AEK Athens. Galantic, who speaks perfect Italian, is confident that Roma will perform well in the Champions League.
