Rayo Vallecano forward Raul de Tomas says Real Madrid can win the Champions League this season.

De Tomas is on-loan at Rayo from Madrid.

"They didn't start well but after the dismissal of Julen Lopetegui, it was obvious what had to change," De Tomas told EFE.

"With Solari, I see they are much better. They are the best club in the world... and they can win this [season's] Champions League."
