Complete Europa League play-off draw
AC Milan landed a favourable Europa League play-off draw in Nyon on Friday as they were pitted against Macedonian side Shkendija.
Vincenzo Montella’s side edged out city rivals Inter to finish sixth last season and secure a spot in Europe after a three-year absence.
Opponents Shkendija, who lost to Gent in the play-off round last time out, finished second in the First League.
Ajax, who lost the 2016-17 final to Manchester United and have since appointed Marcel Keizer as head coach after Peter Bosz left for Borussia Dortmund, were drawn to face Norwegian champions Rosenborg.
