Saha + Brown exchange
Sir Alex Ferguson has stepped up his efforts to sign Tottenham's
Dimitar Berbatov by offering Wes Brown and Louis Saha - plus
£6million in exchange.
Fergie wants to push through a January move for Berbatov after
failing with his initial bid for the Bulgaria striker in the
summer.
The Manchester United manager refuses to be put off, and is now
hoping Berbatov's recent unrest at White Hart Lane will smooth the
path to a move.
Brown's United future is up in the air after he rejected their
final offer of £50,000 a week.
The England defender is out of contract in June and free to talk to
other clubs from January 1.
Fergie has decided he can no longer relay on Saha, who has
struggled for fitness in the past 18 months, and is willing to
offload him after four injury-hit years at United.
Berbatov was unsettled over his failure to secure a move to United
- but has been back among the goals.
