Man Utd face Sociedad, Spurs play AZ Alkmaar & Rangers meet Fenerbahce
Manchester United and Rangers would meet in the Europa League semi-finals, if both teams get that far, while Tottenham are on the other side of the draw
- Published
Manchester United will face Spanish side Real Sociedad in the last 16 of the Europa League, while Tottenham will play AZ Alkmaar and Rangers meet Jose Mourinho's Fenerbahce.
Should United advance, they will play Romanian league leaders FCSB or Lyon in the quarter-finals.
Spurs or Dutch side AZ Alkmaar will face Eintracht Frankfurt or Ajax in the last eight, while Rangers will meet Roma or Athletic Bilbao if they get past Turkish club Fenerbahce.
With Manchester United and Tottenham on opposite halves of the draw, they could - in theory - meet in the final in Bilbao on 21 May, knowing the winner would earn Champions League football next season.
With the Premier League all but guaranteed five places in the Champions League next season, an all-Premier League final would probably mean a sixth English club in Europe's premier club competition in 2025-26 - as Spurs and United are unlikely to finish in the top five.
Meanwhile, Chelsea will face FC Copenhagen in the last 16 of the Conference League.
United, Spurs and Rangers are all away in the first leg of their last-16 ties on Thursday, 6 March. The return legs take place on 13 March.
Chelsea will travel to Denmark for the first leg against Copenhagen on 6 March, with the return at Stamford Bridge seven days later.

Mourinho heading to Ibrox
Rangers fans will look forward to the visit of former Manchester United, Chelsea and Tottenham boss Mourinho to Ibrox in three weeks' time.
His Fenerbahce team sit second in Turkey's Super Lig table, six points behind leaders Galatasaray with 13 games left.
There is a potential route through the tournament which would mean Mourinho faces former clubs Roma in the quarter-final, Manchester United in the last four, and Tottenham in the final.
Manchester United and Real Sociedad met as recently as the 2022-23 season.
After Sociedad secured a 1-0 win at Old Trafford in the Europa League group stage, United went to the Basque Country two months later and won by the same scoreline thanks to Alejandro Garnacho's winner.
Spurs have already faced AZ Alkmaar in the Europa League this season.
Richarlison hit the winner from the penalty spot to secure a 1-0 win in a league phase game on 24 October in north London.
