Dimitar Berbatov is out to win the Champions League, saying it was a key reason behind his Manchester United move.
Sir Alex Ferguson's charges play Joe Mourinho's Inter Milan at the San Siro on Tuesday, a game that has already been surrounded by a healthy war of footballing words.
Whilst admitting that Inter - currently flying high at the top of Serie A, will provide the Red Devils with a stern test - Berbatov is out to get his hands on the trophy that United claimed last season when they beat Chelsea in Moscow.
"I came here to win the Champions League," Berbatov told The Manchester Evening News
"Manchester United are capable of winning it again. We have the team and the players."
"We are facing a very good team on Tuesday," the Bulgaria international added.
"But we have good players as well. It will be a great game to watch and hopefully we can take a good result back to Old Trafford for the second leg."
Fabio Da Silva is on standby to take a place in the United defence if Sir Alex Ferguson ends up not being able to call on John O'Shea and Jonny Evans to face Inter.
Ferguson is hopeful O'Shea will recover from a heel injury in time to face Mourinho's men but Evans was unable to train at the San Siro on Monday evening after limping out of Saturday's win over Blackburn with an ankle injury.
