Riyad Mahrez met his new manager Pep Guardiola on Wednesday morning after finally completing his £60million move from Leicester earlier this week.
Mahrez was also given the opportunity to meet some of his new team-mates as he took part in his first training session for the club.
The Algerian winger was beaming from ear to ear as he took to the training pitch with his new team, having been pushing for the move since January.

Recall that Guardiola wanted to sign the winger six months ago but was willing to wait until the summer after a refusal to match the Foxes' valuation and finally landed his man this week.

The majority of Guardiola's squad are still away on holiday due to their World Cup involvement so there was a low head count at the Etihad Campus.
City are preparing themselves for the pre-season tournament, which kick starts on July 20.
They have scheduled fixtures against Borussia Dortmund, Liverpool and Bayern Munich.
