After AZ punched their ticket for the UEFA Europa League round of 16, the Alkmaar side will look to continue their fine European form in England.
The fifth-placed Eredivisie side impressed against Turkish giants Galatasaray, beating them 4-1 in Alkmaar before limiting the damage in Istanbul with a 2-2 draw.
In their first UEFA Europa League round of 16 appearances since the 2013/14 season, AZ will face Tottenham Hotspur.
The Cheeseheads just recently met Tottenham Hotspur in October, narrowly losing 1-0 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium thanks to a Richarlison penalty.
AZ avoided Manchester United in Friday's draw. AZ and Manchester United had only met twice before - during the 2019/20 Europa League season. AZ held the Red Devils to a 0-0 draw in Alkmaar but lost 4-0 at Old Trafford.
Tottenham Hotspur have been struggling this season with the team currently in 12th place in the Premier League. However, Spurs finished fourth in the league phase of the UEFA Europa League, earning them automatic qualification for the round of 16.
The draw will see Tottenham Hotspur academy product Troy Parrott face the club he represented for seven years before leaving on a permanent transfer to the Eredivisie side in the summer of 2024. The Irishman appeared in four games for the Spurs in the 2019/20 season before getting loaned out to Millwall, Ipswich Town, MK Dons, Preston North End, and Dutch side Excelsior.
AZ and Tottenham Hotspur will play their round of 16 matches on March 6th and 13th. The two sides will open their tie in Alkmaar before playing the deciding leg in North London.
