The Biancocelesti dropped to Conference League from Europa League after finishing third in their group.

Juventus and Roma also learned their European opponents on Friday. The Turin giants will face Freiburg in the Europa League Round of 16, while José Mourinho’s side will meet La Liga side Real Sociedad.
