MANCHESTER UNITED will come across a familiar face in the Europa League after being drawn against Robin van Persie's Fenerbahce in Group A.
The Dutch striker won the Premier League title at Old Trafford in 2013 before departing the club last summer and will face his old side again as well as his compatriots Feyenoord and Ukrainian outsiders Zorya.
England's other representatives, Southampton, have been handed a tough draw in Group K alongside Italian giants Inter, Czechs Sparta Prague and Celtic's Champions League play-off opponents Hapoel Be'er Sheva.
Irish club Dundalk, who produced the shock of the Champions League qualifiers by advancing to the play-offs, will face Zenit St Petersburg, AZ Alkmaar and Maccabi Tel-Aviv.

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
