Manchester United are mulling over a £16million bid from French side Paris Saint-Germain for striker Dimitar Berbatov.
The Ligue 1 side have recently been bought by Qatari billionaires and are looking to spend their wealth in making PSG a top team once again according to Le Parisien.
The new owners are willing to begin a Manchester City style spending spree and want Berbatov to form a dream attack with Lorient star and Tottenham Hotspur target Kevin Gameiro.
Berbatov finished joint top scorer in the Premier League this season but he lost his place in the starting XI to Mexican Javier Hernandez.
The 30-year-old was also left out of the Champions League final squad completely as Michael Owen got the nod in his place.
Berbatov said he was embarrassed by the axe but is determined to carry on at Old Trafford at least until his contract expires in 12 months.
“To be honest, I was in the dressing room,” he said. “I watched the final from there. This was embarrassing for me – that I was not included in the group.
“I didn’t want people to see the pain in my eyes.
“I will remain at United. I will fight for my place and I will fight for title number 20. If I was a man who gave up easily, I would never be here in the first place.
“Starting July 4, everything begins all over again – my personal fight to be in the first team, and for United to win more titles.”
