The Spanish La Liga giants are reportedly looking to sign the want away Manchester United striker, who has had limited game time at Old Trafford this season.
At the end of the 2010/2011 campaign it seemed that Bulgarian hero http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Dimitar-Berbatov-c11254 had finally cemented his place in the Reds’ line-up after being severely criticized for his performances earlier.
As top scorer of the eventual English champions, he was expected to start against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson preferred Javier Hernandez over the veteran attacker and it signalled his fall from grace.
Last term, Berbatov was a peripheral figure and hardly made any contribution in the ultimately fruitless season. With game time a rare commodity in Manchester, the former Tottenham man is set to depart the club he joined in 2008 and seek greener pastures elsewhere.
It is reported that the player will not be staying in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011, where Malaga CF are interested in obtaining his services.
The cash-rich Anchovies have become a force to be reckoned with on the continent following their take-over by the Qatari http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Royal-95-c40387 Family, who have pumped millions into revamping the squad.
As the team continues their search for a marquee name, Berbatov could be their ideal target, as he is proven at the highest level and possesses the right attributes to succeed in the technically advanced Liga BBVA.
With unlimited financial resources, Malaga should not have much problems matching the front-man’s wage demands and can acquire him for free as his contract with United is close to ending.
Ferguson has himself apologized for the player’s treatment in England and has urged him to find a top club, where he can play a major role by taking to the pitch week-in, week-out.
Malaga have the allure of Champions League football at La Rosaleda and offer a complete package that can turn around the sagging career of the former Bulgarian International. All that remains now is finalizing the deal and Berbatov committing his future to one of Spain’s best sides.
