Florian Wirtz believes Bayer Leverkusen's young side have the quality and potential to lift trophies.

Asked if this Leverkusen team can go all the win and win a title, Wirtz told Bundesliga.com:

"Yes, because we have a team with so much quality. We have a lot of young players in the team, which is a strength because we have a lot of energy on the pitch, a lot of pace.

"That's why we can dream about winning trophies with this team. We don't know what will unfold, but the potential is definitely there."

Wirtz and Leverkusen sit third in the Bundesliga and have been drawn against Atalanta in the Europa League round of 16.

They face Arminia Bielefeld this afternoon.
