Manchester City<\/a> chairman Khaldoon Al-Mubarak says this season’s FA Cup<\/a> triumph and qualification for the Champions League<\/a> are a step on the road to achieving the club’s ambitions.<\/p>\n

Roberto Mancini’s side defeated Stoke City at Wembley, while a victory over Tottenham secured a minimum fourth-place finish in the Premier League.<\/p>\n

City are now third and could be set for automatic qualification for the Champions League ahead of Arsenal, but Al-Mubarak has set his sights even higher for the future.<\/p>\n

“I feel we have an incredible foundation for incredible years ahead,” he told the club’s official website.<\/p>\n

“We are one step further on a journey we started three years ago.<\/p>\n

“I am delighted at the way the team has progressed. But our ambitions are much bigger than what has been achieved this season.<\/p>\n

Al-Mubarak’s City could secure third place with a victory over Bolton Wanderers on the final day of the season on Sunday, while Arsenal sit just a point behind in fourth and take on Fulham at Craven Cottage.<\/p>\n

Despite the club’s wealth, Mubarak has also insisted there will be no summer spending spree, with Financial Fair Play rules set to be enforced at the start of the 2012-13 season.<\/p>\n
