THE New Saints have landed a prize trip to Italian giants Fiorentina for the UEFA Conference League after Friday’s draw.
The Saints, with a delegation of Mike Harris and Craig Harrison in Monaco, were drawn against the 2023 finalists as one of the Viola’s home ties.
It marks a huge step in European football for the New Saints.
Harrison's men will also play Swedish side FC Djurgardins at home with a venue still to be confirmed, with Cardiff City's stadium likely to be host.
TNS have been spared a long trip to Kazakhstan as FC Astana will travel to the UK for a home fixture for Saints.
It will be a familiar feeling for Saints as they make the trip to play Shamrock Rovers in Ireland, a side they have faced many times in competitions and friendlies.
TNS's final two opponents - one home and away - were revealed to be Panathaniksos, the legendary Greek team who will travel to the UK.
And Saint's final opponents were revealed to Slovenia's NK Celje.
The dates and times and confirmation of where TNS will host their ties will be revealed on Saturday.
