Livid Tottenham have already reported United to the
Premier League for openly trying to lure him to Old Trafford. The
sight of their striker signing a Red Devils shirt will spark
further outrage. An onlooker said: “I was gobsmacked when he took
the shirt and signed it.
“He didn’t have any problems with it at all. “If I was
one of Berbatov’s team-mates or a fan, I’d be furious. It is
incredibly disrespectful — he may as well have kissed the United
badge.”
Berbatov, 27, signed the shirt at Sofia Airport as he
set off for Bulgaria’s friendly in Bosnia-Herzegovina where he
scored twice in a 2-1 win. United have already bid £25million for
Berbatov, who — as revealed exclusively by SunSport — handed in a
transfer request on Saturday. But Spurs are determined to hang on
for £30m.
Tottenham legend and Sun columnist Jimmy Greaves said:
“Signing the United shirt is certainly cheeky. “He clearly wants to
leave. If he doesn’t want to stay they should get rid of him.”
Spurs fan Bernie Kingsley said: “This brings back
memories of when Paul Ince posed in a United shirt when he was
still at West Ham. “I just wish Spurs would sell him and get it all
over with.” It seems an agreement will be made within the week.
False alarm...
