Man City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan: We're targeting Champions League glory

Manchester City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan says they're going for the Champions League this season.

While they apper out of the Premier League race, City are alive in Europe.

Ahead of their Champions League clash with Dinamo Zagreb, Gundogan stated: "I hope so, to win domestic titles doesn't guarantee the Champions League, it's a new and different competition compared to the Premier League, it's so tough, the knockout stages get tougher and tougher.

“It's something we target for ourselves but it's difficult to achieve.

"It's good to be through as soon as possible, it's a great feeling to be in the knockout stages. We have a responsibility to ourselves to play a good game and perform, there's so much talent in our squad that anything else would be stupid.

“We want to perform well and try to win the game."
