De Bruyne: City can win Champions League

Manchester City are capable of winning their first Champions League title this season, according to attacker Kevin De Bruyne.

City are making their maiden quarter-final appearance in the Champions League as they prepare to travel to Paris Saint-Germain for Wednesday's first leg.

"It's a tournament, so you never know. If the team plays at its best then we always have a chance," said De Bruyne after scoring on his return from injury as City crushed AFC Bournemouth 4-0 on Saturday.

"If you want to win it then you have to win against the big teams also."

"It depends. Everyone maybe has a different view because if you get a 0-0 over there it can also be good," the Belgium international said.

"I think our team always creates chances, I think we are not a defensive team, so I don't think that’s the main issue. We'll see what happens."
