Asian Champions League draw: Holders Al-Ahli to face former winners Al Ain
Al-Ahli and Al Ain, who will also face Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr, are the pick of the match-ups in AFC's Elite draw.
Celtic face a fresh competition in their pursuit of Gvidas Gineitis, with Premier League club Crystal Palace reportedly interested in the Torino midfielder. The 22-year-old Lithuanian has emerged as a primary target for the Scottish champions following Arne Engels' £22 million move to West Ham United. Gineitis' contract at Torino expires soon, and he has established himself both in Italy's top flight and for his national team.
However, Celtic may now have to contend with Premier League interest from Palace, who could soon open negotiations over a potential move. Red Bull Salzburg and Anderlecht have also shown interest in the 22-year-old. Celtic would have to act quickly, as they have until 11pm on Tuesday to register any additional players for their Champions League play-off against LASK Linz.
