Ferguson adamant on Berbatov for Old Trafford

July 13, 2008

Sir Alex Ferguson seems to be quite adamant for his new target, Bulgarian international and Tottenham Hotspur player, Dimitar Berbatov. If reports are to be believed, Manchester United has made an official bid worth $ 39.7 million to the Spurs for the player.

The Scotsman thinks that Berbatov will prove to be the perfect support to an already smashing attack comprising of Wayne Rooney, the England international and Carlos Tevez, Argentinean magician.

Spurs’ boss Juande Ramos will be surely unwilling to let his prized possession go away, but needs to have a check put on the club’s budget, and maybe this is the only way. Berbatov has also expressed his desire to win some more trophies before it is too late, and has been in talks with Chelsea and AC Milan prior to this.

And of course, the ex-CSKA Sofia and Bayer Leverkusen star along with four-time Bulgarian Player of the Year may be the perfect addition to the Old Trafford squad, which won the UEFA Champions League final in Moscow against Chelsea just weeks before.

Manchester United fans are scared that if the club is willing to buy Berbatov, then Christaino Ronaldo may be likely to go to Real Madrid.

The Ronaldo debate has got many influential personalities to put forward their views on the trend of ‘modern slavery’ in football, including FIFA president Step Blatter and Brazilian great Pele, who said that a player is a slave, if he does not get a salary or has no contract. Brazilian star also added that Ronaldo should see out the rest of his contract with United.

Now whether or not Ronaldo leaves for Bernabeu, Berbatov seems all set to come to Old Trafford for making an impact in the ‘Theatre of Dreams’.
