The Champions League 2023/24 group stage draw has been concluded - and there are some incredible ties in store.

Four English clubs were in the draw, with Manchester City, Manchester United, Arsenal and Newcastle all eagerly awaiting their fate in the group stage of the competition.

It will be the final Champions League with the current format, as UEFA will switch to a new eight-game format, where all teams are in the same group, from next season.

But the current format of the group stage certainly looks set to go out with a bang.

All four of the English teams - and Scottish champions Celtic - are among those set for huge ties.
