Pep has so far failed to win the Europe elite trophy during his spell with the Premier League champions.
The former Bayern Munich boss lost in the semi-finals last season to Real Madrid, after being beaten in the final by Chelsea in the 2021 edition.
“Always we have scored goals here. We scored four goals against Real Madrid. We scored six goals against Monaco. We scored four goals against Tottenham here.
