Barcelona to face Mourinho's Inter Milan in Champions Trophy

Holders Barcelona must face Inter Milan in the group stages of the Champions League.

Besides Inter, bossed by Jose Mourinho who was a member of the Barcelona coaching staff early on in his career, Barcelona will also play Dynamo Kiev and Rubin Kazan in Group F.

Barca and Inter were involved in one of the summer's biggest transfers when Swedish striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic moved to the Nou Camp and Samuel Eto'o moved in the opposite direction in a part-exchange deal.

AC Milan were drawn against nine-times winners Real Madrid, Marseille and FC Zurich in Group C.

The clashes between Milan and Madrid will be among the most anticipated in the group stages, and will see the Spanish side showcase their star-studded line-up, among them Cristiano Ronaldo and former Rossoneri attacker Kaka, the Brazilian who made the move to the Bernabeu during the close-season.

Bayern Munich were joined by Juventus, Bordeaux and Maccabi Haifa in Group A.

Manchester United, last year's losing finalists, were drawn to play CSKA Moscow, Besiktas and Wolfsburg in Group B at the draw in Monaco.
