Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong spoke at a Nike event on La Rambla in Barcelona. The Dutchman presented the new winter collection, which Barcelona players will debut exclusively next Monday.

The midfielder spoke about his goals. "We want to win all the titles, of course, but sure, everyone wants to win the Champions League. I will try to be careful with what I say, but it's evident that the Champions League is the title everyone wants. If I have to pick I pick the Champions, but we want La Liga and the Copa too."

Barcelona and Ajax last season both ended up as semi-finalists. "To reach the final we lacked a bit of luck too. It was a very hard moment for Ajax for the fact that we lost the chance to be in the final. We hope that his season we can get there."

 

On new coach Quique Setien he added: "He's not asked me anything specific but he's a coach that has the Barca philosophy. We all know what we have to do. We're really happy with him, I'm very happy."
