De Bruyne: 'City want to get qualified'

Manchester City playmaker Kevin De Bruyne insists that his side are aiming to qualify for the latter stages of the Champions League at the earliest moment possible.

Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne has insisted that his side are focused on qualifying for the latter stages of the Champions League at the earliest opportunity.

Pep Guardiola's men could do so on Wednesday evening should they secure either a draw or register an away win against Napoli at the Stadio San Paolo, having already beaten Maurizio Sarri's side in Manchester earlier this month.

"We know if we go to Napoli and win then we'll have qualified," De Bruyne told the club's official website.

"That would be a nice position for us to be in and then hopefully we can get another good result against Arsenal on Sunday and put some pressure on the rest of the teams.

"It's important just to get qualified and not about thinking about what it might mean, whether we could get a rest in the remaining group matches.

"If we are qualified, that is done. We might then have to think about finishing first or whatever but we know if we get a point or win, we are qualified and so that's our target."

City currently hold top spot in Group F, having won all three of their opening games in the competition.
