The chase for Dimitar Berbatov has become Europe-wide,
casting doubts on the 26-year-old Tottenham strikers assertion
that he is staying at White Hart Lane.
A bid of £25 million, understood to be from Juventus, has set the
mark which the rest will have to match or beat to tempt Spurs into
a quick profit on the player they bought from Bayer Leverkusen for
£10.9m last summer.
Barcelona and Real Madrid are in the frame but dont rule out
Manchester United. Sir Alex Ferguson, with midfielder Owen
Hargreaves sealed if not quite signed, wants a world-class striker
next. He will test Spurs resolve to keep Berbatov.
