Sir Alex Ferguson has wished Dimitar Berbatov well - but does not think the Bulgarian is certain to join Fulham yet.
The
striker has undergone a medical with Martin Jol's side and will depart
Old Trafford before the deadline but there could be yet another twist
regarding his future after he had initially seemed set to join
Fiorentina or Juventus.
"Dimitar was always going
to be going," admitted the boss. "I said last year he'd be leaving at
the end of the season. He's not gone yet, though. I don't know anything
about it.
"There has not been any contact from him. We thought he
was in Italy, but it turned out he isn't. He could be anywhere. I
really mean that.
"I wouldn't be surprised if he's at Tottenham.
There are rumours going around. I do not think it's settled at Fulham,
put it that way.
"He's a very talented player and his contribution
is good, particularly in home games. He's the only player to score a
hat-trick against Liverpool for United [in a very long time].
"When
we changed our game, it didn't suit him. We started to play with more
speed and teams were getting organised very quickly against us.
Therefore, we had to change the way we wanted to play and it didn't suit
Dimitar but he's a very talented player. Wherever he goes, he'll do
well."
There is unlikely to be any other activity around Old
Trafford before the deadline on Friday night although a couple of loan
exits are still in the pipeline for next week.
