Franck Ribery is loving his life with Fiorentina.

Ribery has high praise for Viola boss Vincenzo Montella.

He said: “He is young but always close to the players. I like him very much.

"I love the culture here, the way you think. It is full of restaurants and bridges, and when the sun is shining it is beautiful. For me, it is difficult to get around.

“I am at the training ground a lot, and when I finish training I go home to rest and spend time with my family.

"This club has a great history, there are many great players and men: [Gabriel] Batistuta, [Roberto] Baggio and [Luca] Toni.

“The club has always believed in me, right from the start."
