Villarreal midfielder Dani Parejo is excited ahead of facing Manchester United in this week's Europa League final.

The 32 year-old feels ready to break his duck in Cup finals.

“I was very unlucky to lose several semi-finals, one (with Valencia against Unai Emery's Sevilla in 2014) was especially cruel. But a few years later football gives me a chance for revenge. Thanks to my perseverance and my work, I am playing in a Europa League final, and not many people can say that," said Parejo.

“Playing in Europe at this level and reaching the final undefeated is not easy. However, we have succeeded. Winning one more match and winning the trophy would be incredible. It is a trophy that the club deserves, because a town of 50,000 inhabitants that achieves what Villarreal is achieving has a lot of merit.

“Manchester United are a great team, especially in attack. They have first-rate players: Edinson Cavani, Marcus Rashford, Bruno Fernandes, Paul Pogba. But we will prepare as for any other game, playing as before: as a team."
