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.

It’s unlikely the new virus will disappear the way its close cousin SARS did 17 years ago, as it infects some people without causing obvious symptoms like fever. This group of so-called asymptomatic carriers makes it hard to fully contain transmission as they can spread the virus undetected, a group of Chinese viral and medical researchers told reporters in Beijing at a briefing Monday. With SARS, those infected became seriously ill. Once they were quarantined from others, the virus stopped spreading. In contrast, China is still finding doz...

He often gave me Mathematics assignment just to keep me busy and prevent me from playing football. “But I still found my out even if it was just for five minutes and I knew the implication. “It was my coach back then that convinced my dad to allow me to pursue my career and he loosened up a bit, but that didn’t mean I still didn’t get beaten by him. “Despite the amount of beating I...
