Carrick Makes Berbatov Plea
United midfielder eager to link-up with Spurs favourite
Michael Carrick has urged Dimitar Berbatov to tread on the same path as he did;
in quitting White Hart Lane for Old Trafford.
Berbatov's future at Tottenham has been the subject of fevered speculation of
late, with reports emanating from the player's camp suggesting he was ready to
quit the capital.
The Bulgarian has since come out to pledge his allegiance to his present
employers and their supporters, on the contrary to what several members of his
family have intimated.
Manchester United have long since been mooted as suitors, with Sir Alex
Ferguson known to be an admirer of the precociously gifted striker.
Carrick made the move from Spurs to United 16 months ago in an £18.5million
transfer and he believes that should a similar big-money deal be agreed for
Berbatov, it would be a match made in heaven.
Class act
"Any world-class player who is going to bring something different to the club, you
always welcome that whether that's Berbatov or whoever," he told the Metro.
"He's a very good player. I've watched him quite a bit because he's playing for my
old club and I try and watch them whenever I can.
"He had a very good season last year and people are always going to link him
with big clubs like United.
"As players here what you look for is a player coming in who can bring you
something different, like Berbatov certainly would.
"I'm not saying he's better than what we've got, because we've got the best
around up front.
"But we would welcome any world-class players who can strengthen the squad
and Berbatov certainly would do that."
