Fernando Torres desperate for Champions League success

Atletico Madrid striker Fernando Torres says that "nothing would be comparable" to winning the Champions League with his boyhood club this season.

Atletico Madrid striker Fernando Torres has claimed that "nothing would be comparable" to winning the Champions League this season.

The Spaniard, who is currently on loan at the Vicente Calderon from AC Milan, was part of the Atletico team that recorded a 1-0 win over Bayern Munich in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final on Wednesday night.

Despite already winning the competition with Chelsea in 2012, Torres has revealed that he is desperate to lift the European Cup with his boyhood club.

"Winning the Champions League is the only thing left for me to experience here. Nothing would be comparable. [Bayern] are still the favourites, but we're ready to compete against anyone," Torres told Marca.

As it stands, Torres, who has scored 10 times for Atletico this season, will return to parent club AC Milan this summer.
