Manchester United step up their pursuit of Berbatov
Manchester United will hold further negotiations with Tottenham Hotspur today over the possible transfer of Dimitar Berbatov. Despite having had an opening offer in excess of £20 million rejected, United hope to reach an agreement with Tottenham for the Bulgaria forward.
Ferguson and his players depart for a preseason tour to South Africa tomorrow and would like Berbatov to join them at some point on the trip. Another priority for Ferguson is to appoint a new assistant manager after Carlos Queiroz’s departure to take charge of Portugal. Three of his coaching staff, René Meulensteen, Mike Phelan and Brian McClair, are contenders for the job, although Ferguson is keeping an open mind with regard to possible external candidates.
On continue les négociations aujourd'hui pour Berbatov. On aurait déjà eu une offre de 20M£ refusée.
