United will play Greek side Atromitos FC in the competition’s final qualifying round.
Shola Ameobi: “What we did last season was fantastic.
“Personally, I wanted to see the club back in Europe having tasted it in the early 2000s.

“You get more time to get the ball down, and that’s how I want to play.”
