Berbatov at War With Spurs
August 27, 2008
As the saga drags on and on, Dimitar Berbatov’s agent Emil Danchev has jetted into London to try and force a move to Manchester United.
Spurs Chairman Daniel Levy has already went on record as saying the Bulgarian star will not be leaving for under £30m. He has also been quoted as saying:
“I’d rather let Berbatov rot in the reserves than leave for less than 30″
Dimitar has sat out of both of Spurs league games so far this season, citing “lack of focus”.
However, there may be light at the end of the tunnel with Roman Pavlyuchenko widely believed to be about to make the switch to Tottenham. If he signs, Juande Ramos may be far more willing to allow Berbatov make the trip north.
The Russian would be an instant replacement for the Bulgarian, and would be seen as an excellent signing - he is well known in England after scoring twice against England in an international match, plus scoring 3 times for Russia in their Euro 2008 campaign.
