Celtic top Champions League draw wish list for RB Salzburg star as he hypes up 'great atmosphere'

RB Salzburg's Maximilian Wober wants a Champions League date with Celtic to experience the Parkhead atmosphere.

The Austria international defender revealed he's pinning his hopes on a trip to Glasgow's east end when the group stage draw is made on Thursday. Ange Postecoglou 's side are in pot four which leaves them open to being paired with some of the continent's biggest hitters. Salzburg are in pot three and last faced Celtic in the Europa League group stage four years ago, winning home and away. But Wober hadn't yet joined the Austrian Bundesliga giants and insists he wants to sample the fabled Celtic Park roar on a European night.

Wober said: "Celtic's stadium has a great atmosphere and it would definitely be a lot of fun to play there. In fact, I would love to be drawn against Celtic and Spurs because I would like to play at Tottenham 's new stadium too.

"We want to show again what Red Bull Salzburg stands for and we want to do it at the very top level of club football internationally.

"Of course, we just have to take what comes, but for me, it would be nice to play against new teams."
