Borussia Dortmund boss Terzic welcomes Chelsea draw: I'm close to Potter

Borussia Dortmund boss Edin Terzic is excited about taking on Chelsea in the Champions League.

The German giants, who were second to Manchester City in their group, will take on the London outfit in the round of 16 over two legs.

While Terzic knows that his side are not the favorites to progress for most fans and pundits, he is excited about taking on Chelsea and ex-players Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Christian Pulisic.

He stated after the draw: "Chelsea now awaits us, a top team in England, they won the Champions League in 2020/21 and have Aubameyang and Pulisic who were with us not so long ago.

"I personally am close friends with manager Graham Potter. We're looking forward to seeing each other again."
