Borussia Monchengladbach's Luuk de Jong targets European qualification

Luuk de Jong is confident that Borussia Monchengladbach will make it to next season's Europa League at least.

Borussia Monchengladbach striker Luuk de Jong believes that his side can qualify for Europe next season.

Lucien Favre's team are currently seventh in the Bundesliga with 38 points from 26 matches, just a point behind fourth-placed Eintracht Frankfurt.

"Fourth place is still a possibility," De Jong told Bundesliga.com. "Things are going really well at the moment.

"Of course I'm really happy to score such important goals, but the team is always more important. We desperately wanted the three points in this game [against Hannover on Sunday] and we managed that, so we're delighted.

"It's going to be tough. There are still so many games to play and so much can happen still. Hopefully we can get three points in the next game [against SC Freiburg] too, which would be important to keep us on course for the Europa League."

De Jong joined Monchengladbach from Twente last summer.
