Napoli, the club of Nigeria’s Super Eagles player and Best African Footballer of the Year, Victor Osimhen, have been drawn to face FC Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League Round of 16.
The draw took place at the headquarters of the European football governing body in Nyon, Switzerland.
At the draw on Monday, Arsenal, back in the Champions League for the first time since 2016-17, arguably have the tougher of the ties as they meet Porto, who finished second to Barcelona on head-to-head points.
