Umberto Gandini says that Barcelona are a 'big obstacle' in the way of AC Milan.

AC Milan director Umberto Gandini has said that his team have landed the toughest draw possible in the Champions League after being paired with Barcelona.

However, Gandini believes that the Rossoneri have the quality to win the competition for an eighth time in their history.

"We're facing a side we know very well and they've had a few more problems than usual in the group stage this season," Football Italia quotes Gandini as saying.

"We hope that Milan can end this taboo and beat Barcelona.

"This is the biggest obstacle we could've drawn and it'll be a test of the side's maturity. We can win the Champions League, as Milan have already won it seven times."

The first leg takes place at the San Siro on February 12.
