Sevilla winger Jesus Navas warns Manchester United not to underestimate his team ahead of the clubs' Champions League last-16 meeting on Wednesday.

Sevilla winger Jesus Navas has warned Manchester United not to underestimate his team ahead of the clubs' Champions League last-16 meeting on Wednesday.

The Spanish side, who finished second in their group behind Liverpool, came from behind to draw with the Reds twice in the group stages in 2017.

Former Manchester City winger Navas has said that it would be "nice" to knock Jose Mourinho's team out of the competition, adding that the club are fully focused on this week's first leg.

"For us, it's all about getting through to the next round," the 32-year-old told The Mirror. "But I know it would be nice for some of the friends I've got back in Manchester if we did manage to pull it off and knock out United.

"If people underestimate us, they should look at what we're doing at the moment, our ­performances, the fact we've got to a final already and we're still in all of the competitions. We're a great side and we can achieve things.

"United were always our great rivals when I was at City, and we played some really important games against them. But now this is really important game for Sevilla, for the club, for our fans, and it would be great for us to make it to the quarter-finals."

Navas, whose side will contest the Copa Del Rey final with Barcelona in April, won the Premier League title with City in 2014.
