Manchester City skipper Ilkay Gundogan has declared the Treble winners as a "special" group.

Gundogan is now reflecting on Saturday's Champions League final victory over Inter Milan.

Speaking with UEFA, he said: “It is difficult to describe because I think last year we already had a really special group, but somehow it feels particularly special this year.

“When I think about it now, how I felt before the game and in the days leading up to it, full of self-belief simply due to how we have been with each other over the last few weeks.

“The team spirit and the atmosphere, both with performances on the pitch and during training sessions, banter with each other in the dressing room, cracking jokes with players, staff, everyone.

“That all felt very special and for me that created an unbelievable feeling of self-belief.

“Obviously, I was a bit nervous, but I wasn't hugely worried, because I had this extremely positive feeling in my head and this felt extremely special."
