New Manchester City signing Raheem Sterling is relishing the chance to shine with a team he thinks can dominate domestically and in Europe.

Raheem Sterling believes Manchester City are capable of dominating the Premier League and UEFA Champions League.

Sterling completed his much-anticipated move from Liverpool to City last week for a reported £49million fee - making him the most expensive English player in history and the club's record signing.

"It was about the direction they are going - in recent years they have come a long way," Sterling said.

"They just seem like they are progressing and looking to dominate in England and in Europe.

"[The] Champions League is always a good thing to be involved in. As a young player you want to be challenging yourself in the best competitions, against the best players and with the best players.

"It's a competition that gives me an opportunity to show my ability on the biggest platform.

"This team has great players - it's a really good squad but players like [Sergio] Aguero, [David] Silva and Yaya [Toure] can only improve you."
