Girona manager Michel expresses his desire to face Liverpool in the Champions League next season but hopes to avoid Manchester City. The Spanish boss aims to take on top European teams like Bayern Munich and Juventus, given his excitement for the competition. Despite ranking as one of the lowest teams in the tournament, Girona’s unexpected success in La Liga has secured their spot in the Champions League for the first time in the club’s history.
