Leeds United football chief Victor Orta says qualifying for Europe is on the club's agenda.
Orta insists that the short-term goal is Premier League stability but says the club have long term goals of contending for the European qualification places in the future.
“This club for potential is top 10 in England in every way," Orta told El Pais.
“Here there is a generation that is over 50 years old that has seen Leeds finish champion of England with some regularity. There is a generation of 30-50 years that has seen Leeds in the Champions League semi-final and three years later in the third category, in League One. Then there are the younger ones who don't recall seeing many Premier League matches.
“We are lucky to be a one club city. We are the third largest city in the Premier League by population and the largest with only one club. That is a social value and generates real ambition.
“This year the goal is to establish ourselves between 14th and 10th place, and the following year between 12th and 9th, and then establish ourselves among the top ten. If you do things right, you can put Leeds in European competition."
