Arsenal are determined to win the Carabao Cup for manager Arsene Wenger, says defender Hector Bellerin.
The Gunners boss has never lifted the trophy during his 21 years in England, and right-back Bellerin says it gives the team an extra incentive to beat Manchester City at Wembley on Sunday.
City go into the match as favourites, sitting 27 points ahead of their opponents in the Premier League.
“We should do it for him,” Bellerin told BBC Radio 5 live.
“The boss has been here for more than 20 years and everyone knows he hasn’t won this competition yet, so it’s another incentive for us.”
City are 15 points clear of nearest rivals Liverpool at the top of the Premier League, and are in the last 16 of the Champions League.
But their hopes of a Quadruple were ended by a 1-0 defeat at Wigan in the FA Cup on Monday.
Bellerin said: “They’re a team that had everything to play for but everyone is beatable, even the best teams in the world.
“Their performances have been great and they have a great team. They have a good defence now too which was one of the things previously that was lacking.
“They have a great team overall but it can be done. If it can be done by Wigan, it can be done by us.
“We have great players too and new players who have come in – we feel stronger than ever.”
