leverkusen keen on former star

29 December 2011 09:23
CaughtOffside are claiming that Manchester United striker Dimitar Berbatov is a January transfer target for Bayer Leverkusen.

The Bulgarian spent five fruitful years at the Bundesliga side before moving to Tottenham in 2006. Leverkusen boss Robin Dutt has watched his side struggle for goals during the current campaign and may inquire as to the 30 year old’s availability.

The striker has just 6 months left to run on his contract before he becomes a free agent and has made just one start this season, due to the form of Wayne Rooney, Javier Hernandez and Danny Welbeck.

There is apparent interest from a number of Premier League sides, including Fulham and QPR, but a move back to Germany may appeal to the talented striker.
