The midfielder will link up with his old Inter boss, Carlo Ancelotti in a hope to secure a top four finish with City in the Premier League.
Speaking at a press conference at Eastlands today Viera said, "I decided to come here because the club wanted to be successful, and hopefully I will have the oppurtunity to get back into the French national team".
When asked, 'How do you think you will feel when you play against Arsenal?', Viera raplied, "The same way that I will when I play against other teams".
Meanwhile when the topic of playing against Manchester United came up Viera said, "It's always been exciting to play against United, it will always be a special game".
Viera also went on to say, "I wanted the right challenge I wanted to come to a club that would give me the oppurtunity to be successful".
Arsenal fans wont be too happy as it seems like many of their players that were instrumental in their success at Highbury & the Emirates now seek big money moves to City.
With reports suggesting that he will be on a six month deal at around £130k a week; well you tend to wonder whether the words 'oppurtunity to be successful' plays a factor..
What are your thoughts, is the aim of getting back into the French squad and being successful with City the main factor for Viera's move to City, or was it all about the mulah baby?
