Manchester City full-back Pablo Zabaleta has insisted that he and his Argentine teammates Sergio Aguero and Carlos Tevez are satisfied with life in the North West.
All three players have been linked with transfers away from the Etihad Stadium this summer, with Zabaleta reportedly rejecting a switch to Barcelona.
"The three of us spend a lot of time together, Sergio lives five minutes away," Zabaleta told ManC magazine. "It's great for Carlos, for Sergio, for me. We play together for the national team and I played with them in the youth teams.
"For us it's a new experience here. Whenever you leave your country you learn a lot of things. The opportunity we have in England is making a big impact in our lives.
"The culture is different, the football is different, we are really enjoying it here. Manchester is one of the best places in the UK."
Meanwhile, Aguero has reiterated Zabaleta's desire to remain with the Premier League champions.
