Dimitar Berbatov sends message to Harry Kane over leaving Tottenham for Man Utd

Former Tottenham Hotspur star, Dimitar Berbatov, has urged striker, Harry Kane to make the tough decision to leave the club for Manchester United.

The former Bulgaria international, who won two Premier League titles at Manchester United after leaving Tottenham to join the Red Devils in 2008, believes Kane may have to follow suit.

WATV recalls that Kane has drawn interest from Man United in the past few weeks.

The England international, who is yet to win any silverware at Tottenham, has scored 181 goals in 278 matches for Spurs over the past six seasons.

“The final step for me was joining Man United, and I knew I would be making people disappointed, especially Tottenham fans, but I was following my own path,” Berbatov told the Football Daily podcast.

“I knew if I missed that chance, another one might not come.

“This is how it is in football. Sometimes you need to make tough decisions.

“The same exact situation is happening with Harry Kane at the moment.

“He is in the same situation as I was in, and he has started asking questions, and maybe his head is not in the right place just like my head was not in the right place then.

“The lack of trophies is the main problem for players like Kane.

“He is not getting any younger. He wants to look back and know he won trophies.

“When I see Tottenham play Man United now, even if on paper Spurs have better players, they still go there with fear,” he said.

All Aboard..! Steering Nigeria’s COVID-19 Action Train

The first case of COVID-19 was confirmed in Nigeria on the 27th of February 2020. Just a little over two months ago and, yet, it feels like a lifetime has elapsed. The world we lived in then, is so much different from the one we are about to be released into, as the lockdown restrictions are lifted. When the lockdown was announced by President Muhammadu Buhari on the 27th of March, there were 65 confirmed cases in the country and the President’s Chief of Staff had just tested positive for the virus. Today, we have confirmed over 2000 cases, and many of our beloved fellow citizens (more than 50) are no longer with us, having fallen in the wake of this novel coronavirus. May the souls of the departed rest in peace, and to those of us who remain on the journey of life, may God grant wisdom. We need it, desperately, at this time to navigate the complexities ahead. The month we spent sheltering in place was, without question, challenging; but in our isolation there was an odd sort of t
