Tottenham have finally realized that they can have little hope of retaining the services of Dimitar Berbatov for the upcoming season, claims a report in The Independent.
The report mentions that neither Barcelona nor Henry have had any contact from Manchester United or related parties and that reports in yesterday’s press, claiming that the Frenchman was used as a decoy in the United’s pursuit of Berbatov, were not far off reality.
The report claims that Tottenham are ‘pessimistic’ about the possibility of holding off United in their pursuit of Berbatov and a deal could be done anytime soon.
Meanwhile, the Premier League will begin an investigation in United’s illegal approach for Dimitar Berbatov, according to The Times.
