Manuel Pellegrini has pledged to bring titles and style to Manchester City after being named as the new manager of the English Premier League giants.
.
The 59-year-old Chilean left Malaga to pen a three- year deal as Roberto Mancini's replacement.
.
His task is to snatch the league title back from neighbours Manchester United and go deep into the Champions League where Mancini constantly fell short.
.
"Everyone knows if you arrive at a club like Manchester City you need to win titles," Pellegrini, nicknamed 'The Engineer' told ManCity TV.
.
"I think Manchester City have invested a lot of money to improve the squad every year and try, every year, to win titles.
.
"They were not successful in winning some titles but I am sure we are going to win - maybe the Premier League, the Champions League. We will try to win a lot.
.
"My first message is to tell all the supporters they will enjoy the season. I am sure they will enjoy the way our team will play.
.
"We will play an attractive, offensive play."
.
Pellegrini has more than 25 years' of managerial experience in South America and Spain and has taken Malaga and Villarreal to the latter stages of the Champions League.
.
He spent a single season in charge of Real Madrid before he was succeeded by Jose Mourinho, also now back in England at Chelsea.
.
"With Malaga I reached the quarterfinal of the Champions League, with Villarreal also and the semifinal. All my experience will be very useful for me.
.
"I am sure we are going to have a very good season. I can tell all the fans of Manchester City I work very hard."
.
Pellegrini will have plenty of talent at his disposal at Eastlands after Fernandinho and Jesus Navas signed earlier in the summer for a combined initial cost of almost £45million.
.
City have also been linked with Malaga playmaker Isco and Napoli striker Edinson Cavani.
.
Pellegrini brings with him assistant Ruben Cousillas, goalkeeping coach Xabier Mancisidor and fitness coach Jose Cabello.
.
But Mancini's assistant manager Brian Kidd will also remain as part of the set-up.
.
Kidd said: "I am pleased. It is a compliment and a great honour that I am stopping with the club. I am very pleased that Mr Pellegrini wants me to stay."
.
City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak, who has ploughed millions into the club, said of Pellegrini's appointment: "Manuel is a hugely experienced and successful manager with a proven track record.
He has the right to say something like that. Pellegrini has achieved a lot of things in the past club so he'll do well.
