United manager less optimistic over Berbatov move

Posted by Stevio in Transfers on August 29th, 2008

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson doesn’t appear too happy with the way things are going in his attempts to sign Spurs striker Dimitar Berbatov.

The Scot said: “I’m less optimistic today. I’ve no idea what is going on.

“It is hard to communicate with some people in this life. We just have to get on with it.”

Perhaps they should finally cough up the £30m asking price, then I’m sure communications would be crystal clear.

Spurs’ Heskey link played down

Posted by Stevio in Transfers on August 27th, 2008

Wigan Athletic manager Steve Bruce says he’s yet to hear from any club interested in signing striker Emile Heskey.

Spurs had been linked with a £10m move for the 30-year-old England international.

The ex-Manchester United defender said: “It would take a hell of an offer to let him go but I’ve not heard anything from anyone and I don’t envisage anything happening at this late stage.”
