The English club will be competing against AC Milan, managed by Ruben Amorim, along with Real Sociedad, Viktoria Plzeň, Sparta Praha, Sturm Graz, Celta, H. Beer-Sheva, and Lillestrøm.
It’s set to be a tough journey for the ‘Cherries.’
The Portuguese director, previously with Roma, expressed his enthusiasm for the match against the Rossoneri: “We are thrilled to be here; facing AC Milan will be the most significant game in the club’s history. We will strive to compete and secure a victory.”
Pinto also reflected on his time in Italy: “I have a fondness for Italy as a country. I’ve faced criticism for my honesty, so while I can’t say I miss Italian football, I do miss the country itself. Of course, I also miss Roma, the city, the fans, and the club. I am enjoying my time in the Premier League; it has always been my dream to work here.”
