Dimitar Berbatov has confirmed he told his agent to 'f*** off' when Manchester City attempted to hijack his move to Manchester United.
The Bulgarian had been starring for Tottenham, scoring 46 goals across two seasons for the London club. But that form also attracted the interest of perennial Premier League title challengers United, with Sir Alex Ferguson launching a move for him.
While Spurs were unhappy about the manner of Ferguson's approach to the transfer, they were able to negotiate a £30.75million fee in exchange for Berbatov. Though United was his self-admitted dream move, things may have turned out very differently.
