Rayan Ait-Nouri, the 24-year-old Algerian full-back who joined Manchester City from Wolverhampton Wanderers last summer, is now experiencing a full recovery in form after overcoming injuries at the beginning of the season.

Manchester City are currently competing online for four major titles. In a recent interview, the new defensive signing spoke about this incredible journey, saying that playing for Manchester City is a completely different level of experience.

Upon arriving at the Al-Ittihad Stadium, Ait Nouri's most immediate feeling was the increased pressure. He admitted that competing against top stars made every training session here incredibly challenging.

“It’s a completely different level, the pressure is immense, but the atmosphere in the dressing room is fantastic.” Ayit Nouri revealed that he consulted with national team veteran Riyad Mahrez before the transfer, and Mahrez not only strongly recommended him, but the enthusiastic acceptance from the entire Manchester City team was also key to his smooth transition.

Playing in Pep Guardiola's system is a test and a reshaping experience for any player. Ayit Nouri said that under the guidance of Guardiola and his assistant coaches, he absorbs new knowledge like a sponge every day.

Ayit-Nuri said: "It is a great honor to work with them. We are trying to push our limits every day, and I can clearly feel that I have made great progress in many aspects of the game."

Currently, Manchester City trails league leaders Arsenal by five points with a game in hand. Despite the clamor for the title, Ayit Nouri, who has been playing in the Premier League for six years, remains remarkably calm.

He is well aware of the league's ruthlessness and refuses to be overly ambitious: "Every game is extremely difficult. Our primary task now is to focus on ourselves and play each game well. We will give it our all and fight until the very last moment!"
