Tim Sherwood has insisted that his Tottenham Hotspur side will be fully focused on Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk when the first leg of their Europa League last-32 tie takes place on Thursday.
Spurs are chasing a spot in the Champions League next season but Sherwood claims that he won't allow the squad to waste an opportunity of chasing silverware.
"We respect the tournament, we have come this far and we want to continue and progress in the competition," Sherwood told reporters.
"It is the only cup competition we are left in and we have enough players in our squad to compete in both competitions and that is what we intend to do.
"We have seen that down the years, a lot of managers have won this down the years and gone on to bigger and better things. It is the priority of the club to win both - the place in the Champions League and the Europa League."
Spurs visit Carrow Road on Sunday to take on Norwich City in the Premier League following their trip to Ukraine.
