Riyad Mahrez has welcomed the competition for places at Manchester City; one he reckons is a positive that would improve the club.
The winger completed a club-record £60illion move from Leicester City to become the Citizens' first summer signing.
Following their triumph in the English top-flight last season, the Algeria international faces a fight for a starting role in his new team.
In the absence of most of City's regular first-team players, Mahrez has featured in the club's last two pre-season games [1-0 loss to Dortmund and 2-1 loss to Liverpool] in the US but was replaced by Patrick Roberts in the 72nd minute of both encounters.
