The draw for the group stage of the Champions League has taken place, and Manchester United face Harry Kane's new club Bayern Munich following his blockbuster summer transfer, while Newcastle in their first campaign in the competition for 20 years have been given what has been described as a 'Group of death'. Arsenal and Manchester City have also discovered their fates, with Pep Guardiola's side aiming to retain their trophy. United have been joined by Bayern Munich in Group A, with Kane returning to English soil sooner than he perhaps would have expected after departing Tottenham earlier this month. The two European giants have been joined by Copenhagen and a tricky away journey to Galatasaray. Newcastle supporters are in for a treat if they are looking to tour some of the continent's iconic football stadiums, as the Pot 4 side were drawn with Paris Saint-Germain, AC Milan and Borussia Dortmund as some dates will have been put eagerly on Eddie Howe's calendar.
