I don't think it happened over the course of a day. I think his agent secretly shopped him around weeks before this and all the big clubs said no, except City!!
Another possible reason which isn't made public but is known to some of the locals is that him and his wife just had their dream home built in Prestbury, they spent millions buying an old property, tearing it down, going through all the planning permissions and having the new one built. All over the period of the last couple years. Mrs Shrek does not want to leave her new castle so that means he plays for United or City!
