Eric Bailly claims he snubbed Manchester City in favour of a move to Manchester United because he wanted to work with Jose Mourinho.
Bailly became Mourinho's first signing as United boss when he moved to Old Trafford from Villarreal in a £30m deal in June.
However, the defender has since revealed City boss Pep Guardiola's assistant approached him over a potential transfer to the Etihad Stadium.
Bailly says Ivory Coast team-mate Yaya Toure also tried to convince him to join City but instead chose to follow other compatriot Didier Drogba's advice and sign for United.
