Laurent Blanc's side completed a domestic treble
on Saturday and the defender has now set his
sights on European glory
David Luiz was delighted to round out a "great
season" with Paris Saint-Germain by completing
an unprecedented domestic treble - and has now
set his sights on Champions League glory with the
French club.
Edinson Cavani grabbed the only goal of the game
as PSG defeated Auxerre 1-0 in the final of the
Coupe de France on Saturday, having already
won Ligue 1 and the Coupe de la Ligue.
It was also the perfect finish to Luiz's
debut campaign in France, the defender having
moved to Paris from Chelsea ahead of the 2014-15
season.
"It was a great season for us, we're very happy
here," he said. "It is never easy to win one title in a
season and we have won three.
"It is a pleasure to play for this club, thank you to
the club, the staff, the fans, every single person
who works at the club. It is a real family, human
club, so it is a pleasure to play here."
The Brazilian is now determined to help the big-
spending French side go on and be successful in
Europe.
PSG reached the quarter-final stage this year,
knocking out Chelsea in the process, before losing
5-1 on aggregate to Barcelona.
"Not bad, not bad, no? For my first season here,"
Luiz added. "This is a big club, you have to have
ambition to win every single competition. We have
raised our game now, so we need to keep it that
way. Of course, we also want to make the jump in
Europe.
"It's our dream to win the Champions League. This
season we lost to one of the best clubs in the
world, but we're on the right track.
"I am very happy here so for sure one day before I
leave this club, I would like to stay here for 10
years, I don't know how many years the president
will give me a contract, but I would like to win the
Champions League."
