Berbatov's Agent Confirms Manchester United Interests




Dimitar Berbatov's agent, Emil Danchev, confirms Manchester United's interest in signing his client. It is said that Manchester United offer Berba a sum of 20 million pounds to have him play in Old Trafford next season, with a weekly wage that is said to be around 80,000 pounds per week.

"I know for certain Manchester United have shown interest in signing Dimitar Berbatov, but I'm not entitled to make any more comments.", Danchev said to Darik, a Bulgarian local radio.

In 2006 Berba turned down United's offer and instead he joined Tottenham Hotspurs from Bayer Leverkusen. Last season United tried to sign Berba again, but again Berba decided to stay with the Spurs and won the League Cup with them, Spurs first trophy since the 1998/1999 season.

Manchester United Won Friendly Against Aberdeen

As a sign of respect, Fergie featured his first team selection such as Gary Neville, Nemanja Vidic, Wes Brown, Paul Scholes, Ryan Giggs, Carrick dan Rooney. Right before half time Manchester United were awarded a penalty. Carrick, who took the penalty scored United's first goal, 1-0.

At the 70th minute, Rooney headed for goal as Fletcher delivered a perfect timed cross, 2-0 for Manchester United until the final whistle blows.
