Nigel de Jong is urging Wesley Sneijder to reject Manchester United and join him at Manchester City. The Daily Star Sunday says De Jong bigged-up life at Eastlands to Sneijder during last year's World Cup in South Africa.
And the City star has even been phoning Inter Milan star Sneijder while he has been on holiday to tell him all about life in Manchester.
Man United are currently the favourites to capture Sneijder, even though FA Cup holders City can now offer Champions League football.
