Valencia coach Ruben Baraja says European qualification is a target.

Baraja was speaking ahead of facing Villarreal this weekend.

He said, “The next game we play is against Villarreal CF, who are a team that have improved significantly in this final of the season - especially in LALIGA. Facing the challenge well can give us the possibility of winning and, - why not? -, perhaps of getting excited.

"There is still a long way left, we are in a good position heading into the final stretch of the season and that gives us extra motivation to fight until the end.

"Our objective must be to compete at the highest level of demand in the next match. With our performance in each game, this still gives us the possibility of dreaming of achieving something beautiful."
