Berbatov - Update - in club car to Motspur - merged

[ffcbulgaria]

Interesting reports going around the web. 2 days ago news said he rejected the 1.8mil Euro/season offer from Fiorentina because he wanted 1 million more. Today papers report we are giving him 5mil pounds/season. What do you think the truth is? Obviously he's above the top wage of 45k, but double that? Doubt it.

All complete guess work, the club NEVER disclose any details of transfers and wages

I can see us going up to 60-70 on a "one off" transfer but double + on our current top earner and double on what so called giants Juventus offered. Not to mention 100k is about what he was getting at Man Utd. I don't think our club would score such an own goal by givin that to even Messi.

Ferguson just said in his press conference 'he wouldn't be surprised if Berbatov went to Spurs...'

[Lighthouse]

Him signing for Fulham was confirmed on one of the sport radio stations in Bulgaria last night from his manager. But yea, before it comes up at fulhamfc.com we can still doubt the situation :D

[cottage cheese]

he did ditch the viola and juventus so why not make it a hat trick.

 :012: From the Man U offal:

Sir Alex Ferguson has wished Dimitar Berbatov well - but does not think the Bulgarian is certain to join Fulham yet.

The striker has undergone a medical with Martin Jol's side and will depart Old Trafford before the deadline but there could be yet another twist regarding his future.

"Dimitar was always going to be going," admitted the boss. "I said last year he'd be leaving at the end of the season. He's not gone yet, though. I don't know anything about it. We've not had any contact with him.

"We thought he was in Italy, going to Fiorentina. But it turns out he's not gone there. He could be anywhere, to be honest with you. It wouldn't surprise me if he's at Tottenham.

"I don't think he's certain to go to Fulham, put it that way. He's a very talented player and his contribution is good, particularly at home. He's the only player to score a hat-trick against Liverpool for United. When we changed our game, it didn't suit him. We started to play with more speed. Wherever he goes, he'll do well."

There is unlikely to be any other activity around Old Trafford before the deadline on Friday night.

"There will not be any more business today," stressed Sir Alex. "There's no need to loan today. We can do that seven days after the deadline. There are one or two players we need to get out on loan - younger players - but we don't have to make a decision on that at the moment."

Why the hell was Jol and co laughing and smiling about it yesterday at the press conf if it wasnt finalised grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[cottage cheese]

maybe spurs have come in this morning or late last night?

[FulhamMic]

I don't know anything about it. We've not had any contact with him.

We thought he was in Italy, going to Fiorentina. But it turns out he's not gone there. He could be anywhere, to be honest with you.

This suggests he has absolutely no clue (if true) and therefore everything else he's said is pure speculation on SAF's part 086.gif

Also, he's leaving Utd. because he wants to play. With Spurs having signed Adebayor and Defoe having signed a new contract, would he get guaranteed first team football?

To make other clubs think it was a done deal to stop clubs coming in with late offers.

Seemed to me like a bit of a dig at Berba
But ya never know as every manager says they haven't got a clue when they clearly have. Eg Big Sam all he knew was Maynard. just want them to have it signed b4 12 so he can be involved 2mo and I don't have to keep refreshing this site lol
