Do Manchester United want http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Dimitar-Berbatov-c11254 or not? – English Premier League
The speculation surrounding Dimitar Berbatov’s future at Manchester United seems never ending for the time being. The elegant Bulgarian striker is now unwanted at Manchester United if the latest gossip is to be believed as the
Red Devils’ have not offered him a new contract despite his impressive goal tally in the recently concluded English Premier League season. In his 32 appearances for Manchester United in their title winning 2010-2011 Premier League campaign, Berbatov was on
fire as he scored 21 goals.
With his current deal ending in 2012, United are running the risk of losing out the Bulgarian on a free transfer. It seems that no one at United is interested in keeping hold of their stop scorer. Berbatov has had a mixed career
at Old Trafford thus far. After Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson bought the striker for approximately 30 million pounds in the 2008 summer transfer window, the fans expected Berbatov to take the Premier League by storm but he never really managed to impress the Stretford
end.
In his first season with the Red Devils’, Manchester United did well in the UEFA Champions League as they reached the final of the competition but only to lose our to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 in Rome. Berbatov was on the bench as he watched Lionel
Messi run rampant in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Italy-c2926. In his first season, Berbatov was just a bit player which was reflected in his statistics as he played 31 matches and scored only 9 goals. This disappointing beginning to his United career meant that the fans turned against him
as they expected him to do better.
However Berbatov tumbled under the weight of the pressure that was applied on his shoulders by the Manchester United faithful. The Bulgarian target-man scored twelve goals as he made 33 appearances in the 2009-2010 season. This
time around Manchester United’s second place finish in the English Premier League was not enough to win them the league title and Berbatov was treated as a scapegoat by the club’s fans.
Nonetheless, the former Tottenham player responded in fine style to his critics in the 2010-2011 season when he took up the whole weight of the goal scoring responsibilities at Old Trafford. At the start of the Premier League season,
Dimitar netted a hatrick against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 to win over the Red Devils’ faithful. Berbatov continued his fine form as he ended the season as a joint top scorer in the English Premier League with 21 goals. Now it seems that the former Bayer Leverkusen goal scorer
is in deep water after he was left out of the UEFA Champions League for the second time in his short Manchester United career.
If Berbatov’s agent’s remarks are to be taken serious, it seems as if the Bulgarian is not wanted at Manchester United anymore as he has not been offered a new contract. This precarious situation is still developing but for the
moment Berbatov is like a man between a rock and a hard place. He is still waiting to make contact with the club in an attempt to sign a new deal. Berbatov has again and again stated over the past month that he is happy at Manchester United but what happens
if Manchester United are not happy to have him?
