Inter Milan star speaks on the possibility of the Nerrazurri winning the Champions League.

Inter Milan are in the last four of the Champions League, and right wing-back Denzel Dumfries believes they can go on to win the competition. 

The Nerazzurri reached the final four of the competition after defeating Benfica. Although they played 3-3 in the second leg, a 2-0 first-leg win ensured they moved on to the next round to the detriment of the Eagles. 

What Dumfries said 

The Netherlands international believes his club can win the competition, even suggesting the sentiments are not a result of the current situation, but rather that at the start of the tournament, they always believed they had what it took to win it.

The wing-back was honest and did not recline into giving a cliche response on how they will do their best; rather, he boldly stated that Inter's target is to win the Champions League. 

"We said this already at the start of the season, we can win the Champions League. This is our goal. Of course, the target is to win the Champions League," he said, per the BBC.

Inter were the last team from Serie A to win the competition when Mourinho's side picked up the trophy in the 2009/10 season.

Meanwhile, Denzel Dumfries says he looks forward to his side's matchup against their local rivals AC Milan in the semi-final of the Champions League, saying the showdown will be special.
