Barcelona don't want to draw Chelsea in Champions League, says Courtois

Thibaut Courtois has said Chelsea have no problems having finished second in Champions League Group C, despite the prospect of facing a seeded team in the last 16.

Chelsea were held 1-1 against Atletico Madrid on Tuesday, while Roma beat Qarabag 1-0 to leapfrog Antonio Conte's men into top spot.

The Blues will now likely face Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain or Besiktas as competition regulations mean that they cannot draw Roma or an English team in the next round.

The goalkeeper is aware of the task at hand for his side but knows that the European giants will not fancy meeting them.
