Berbatov "hands in transfer request" as Fergie drops big hint...

According to the Sun Dimitar Berbatov has told Spurs that he wants to quit and join Manchester United. This news will surprise few who have been following the story. However, last night Fergie added yet more intrigue to this unfolding story when saying "You might be surprised at what’s going to happen over the next two days.”

The United manager who has been very guarded about the prospect of the Bulgarian arriving at United this summer, which follows on from the North London club reporting the Reds to the Premier League for alleged tapping, but this latest comment from Fergie is very interesting.

Could it be that United and Spurs are about to agree a swap deal with the Champions paying around £24m for the Bulgarian and lumping in a player? We have been led to believe that one of the major sticking points to any deal was that Spurs will need to find a replacement for Berbatov and with so little time left, we cannot rule out that Louis Saha or even Frazier Campbell could become a makeweight in this proposed transfer.

Whatever Ferguson was alluding to it seems all will become clear over the weekend. Let us hope that United finally get their man so we can concentrate on the coming season without more distractions.
