"CELTIC, A TOP CLASS TIE"

The thoughts of managing director Marco Fassone after the Europa League draw in Nyon

NYON - Celtic came out of the pot for Inter in Nyon. Here's what managing director Marco Fassone had to say following the draw: "We need to try and win this competition for the prestige and for the chance to qualify for the Champions League. There are five rounds between here and Warsaw. We'll try to win it. It will be a tricky match against Celtic but, either way, they were all difficult opponents. We feel under pressure due to our league position because it's not what we were expecting. Things have been clear with Mancini from the outset and he has bought in fully to our project."

The managing director continued: "I think we have to months to work with and we hope to climb the table in that time. Mancini is keeping a very close eye on the youngsters in the Primavera. He personally watches their training sessions and follows everything very carefully. The Celtic tie has the feel of a Champions League match, due to the two sides' history. There will be an incredible atmosphere but we're ready to face that. Playing the second leg at home is a minor advantage. It will be one of the most exciting ties of the round."
