Who can Manchester United face in Europa League last 32 draw?

Manchester United eased into the Europa League knockout stages as Group L winners after beating AZ Alkmaar 4-0 at Old Trafford on Thursday night.

Teenager Mason Greenwood underlined his star quality by hitting a stunning brace as United thrashed their Dutch visitors to wrap up top spot in style - after half-time, that is.

Following impressive Premier League victories against Tottenham and Manchester City, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side turned their attention to winning Group L against another team already guaranteed to be in Monday's knockout phase draw.

AZ gave United a few scares during a sloppy first half but United eventually kicked into gear and roared to a convincing victory, with 18-year-old Greenwood's exceptional double complementing efforts from elder statesmen Ashley Young and Juan Mata.

Winning Group L means United enter the round of 32 draw among the top seeds, avoiding the likes of Ajax, Benfica, Inter Milan and RB Salzburg.

Below, we look at every possible last-32 opponent for United ahead of Monday’s draw.

APOEL, Copenhagen, Getafe, Sporting, CFR Cluj, Eintracht Frankfurt, Rangers, Ludogorets, Wolfsburg, AS Roma, Club Brugge, Olympiacos, Shakhtar Donetsk, Bayer Leverkusen.

*Manchester United cannot be drawn against AZ Alkmaar (group opponents) or Wolves (same country).
