Bayern Munich winger Franck Ribery believes that compatriot Samir Nasri is rediscovering his best form for Manchester City this season.
The Frenchman has endured a mixed spell at the Etihad since leaving Arsenal in 2011 following reported spats with former boss Roberto Mancini, but has enjoyed a positive start to the current campaign.
City face the Champions League holders on Wednesday, and Ribery is fully aware of the threat possessed by Nasri.
"Samir is a new person", Ribery told a press conference. "He is like a brother to me.
"Here we see the Samir of his time at Arsenal. He is one of the most talented players in Europe."
