FC Copenhagen winger Elias Achouri admits he's spoken with good friend Hannibal Mejbri ahead of tomorrow night's Champions League clash at Manchester United.

The pair are Tunisia teammates and good friends.

"Yes, of course I have (spoken to Hannibal). I just said we're going to win the game and afterwards we're probably going to swap jerseys because he's my friend," Achouri told Bold.

"It will be a big moment for him and for me.

"He said: 'Take it easy. You must not destroy my teammates'!

"But I have to do that. In any case, I have to try it."

Achouri also says the two Tunisians spoke straight after the draw.

"Of course. I called him right after, and we also talked about it at the last national team tour, and it will be a lot of fun," concluded Achouri.
