Man Utd are tipped to complete the signing of Spurs striker Dimitar Berbatov who has reportedly asked for a transfer.
The Bulgaria international has been on Red Devils boss Sir Alex Ferguson's radar for over 12 months but the chase seems to be almost at an end.
Fergie is desperate to bolster his strikeforce before the end of the transfer window on August 31 with Louis Saha's injury problems a cause for concern at Old Trafford.
Berbatov is now said to have forced the issue by demanding a move away from White Hart Lane as he looks for Champions League football.
The 27-year-old cost Spurs just under £11m two years ago but he could cost upwards of £30m if the deal goes through this summer.
