Barcelona fringe player Sergi Roberto has exclusively told Goal.com that he expects his side to win this season’s Champions League, and hopes the Catalans play to their potential against Manchester United at Wembley tonight.

The 19-year-old made his European debut for the club in the dying moments of the semi-finals against Real Madrid, and is currently on duty for the Spain under-19 side.

“If Barcelona play their game, they will win; I am sure they would succeed and end up winning,” the B team regular stated.

“

Barcelona play football that few teams do, and if they can impose themselves they will be superior to Manchester United,” he continued.

Despite appearing in the competition this season for a short amount of time, the Reus-born youngster says he won’t feel like a Champions League winner if the Spanish side triumph, and laughed when this was suggested.

“I would not consider myself a champion in that case. I would be thrilled if they win, and yes I was involved in part of the title, but I think all the merit goes to the players who are in London.

“Playing three minutes you might feel that some of the Champions League is yours, but I think the merit is all theirs.”

The big clash takes place at 19:45 local time this evening, with all the best coverage here on Goal.com.
