Man City winger Patrick Roberts: I want Premier League chance

Manchester City winger Patrick Roberts admits he'd like to play in the Premier League next season.

Roberts has this season been on-loan with Celtic.

He told Sky Sports News: "I've enjoyed my football [with Celtic] and everyone knows that. But you also have to look at the bigger picture and I have certain ambitions in my head and places that I want to be.

"To get there I need to come out of my comfort zone and try to reach those targets, but playing for Celtic has been a dream come true and I've enjoyed every minute."

Roberts was pressed on whether he would like to make his mark in the Premier League next season.

"Hopefully, that's the main aim. Being an English player and having come through the system in the Premier League [the ambition] is to play for a top club in the Premier League.

"I'm at one now with Manchester City and they're doing well but you've got to look at yourself, and what's best for you, and try to pick the best option possible."
