It was reported late last week that Tottenham and Manchester United had agreed to a deal worth about £28 million for the striker, but United have since distanced themselves from the report, according to The Telegraph.
Despite this, Dimitar Berbatov is confident of making his move to Old Trafford this summer, as reported by The Daily Mail.
The player is not expected to join United in time for the team’s tour to Africa, but his move could be concluded when Sir Alex returns from the team’s pre-season tour, according to the same report.
The Telegraph meanwhile states that Tottenham are unlikely to settle for anything less that their set £30 million asking price. This would make the Bulgarian Manchester United’s most expensive transfer of all time beating Ferdinand’s £29.1 million receipt.
