Ajax coach Erik ten Hag has fired a Champions League warning at Real Madrid.

The two teams meet in the round of 16.

Ten Hag believes his players should aspire to go further in the competition.

"We have been working well and we're in the middle of a good moment of evolution," he told Fox Sports.

"But we want to take a step forward and we can give more.

"We're alive in three competitions, but we want to do more than just fight.

"We want to win titles.

"[The tie against Real Madrid] is very difficult, but it's a good opportunity for us."
