Carles Puyol "happy" with AC Milan tie

Carles Puyol says that he has "always liked" AC Milan.

Barcelona captain Carles Puyol has revealed his delight at drawing AC Milan in the last 16 of the Champions League.

The European heavyweights, who have won the competition 11 times between them, came out of the hat together at the draw in Nyon this afternoon.

"I am very happy," Puyol told reporters.

"I said the other week that I wanted Milan, not because they are easy, but because I've always liked them.

"It is going to be a very nice tie."

The Catalan giants will travel to the San Siro for the first leg on February 20, before welcoming to Rossoneri to the Nou Camp on March 12.
