The defender signed for United from Villarreal this summer and claims that he turned down City after following the advice of Didier Drogba. 

Bailly's mind was made up when Drogba praised the influence of Man Utd boss Jose Mourinho. 

"Mourinho called me as well and he told me to come and play for him. I prefer Mourinho, in part because of Didier Drogba, who worked with him. Didier is a friend and he told me Jose did a lot for him," Bailly told 'The Sun'. 

However, the United man did consult another Ivorian in Yaya Toure, who did try to get the defender to join City. 

"Yaya also called me and wanted me to come to City, but once Jose spoke to me and Didier gave me advice, I knew straight away I wanted to play for him," Bailly said. 

Do you think that Bailly joined the right Manchester club?
