Celta Vigo's Argentine defender Gustavo Cabral has said that his side is "ambitious" to occupy fourth position in La Liga standings to qualify for the European Champions League.

Celta Vigo are currently in sixth position with 48 points from 30 matches; the same as fifth place Sevilla and six points behind Villarreal in fourth place, reports Xinhua.

"We have to keep working and deal with the eight remaining games as finals," Cabral said on Tuesday.

"We always look forward and why we not dream of playing in the Champions League and aspire to more things," he added.

The Argentine defender has described Sunday's 2-0 victory over Valencia at the Mestalla stadium as "important," praising his side's good performance.

Cabral refused to predict the result of the coming derby against Deportivo La Coruna, but hopes that his team can win the La Liga clash.
