Dimitar Berbatov’s agent has confirmed that his client will leave Manchester United in the summer, and that the Premier League champions will not stand in the way of a move.

The talented forward has fallen down the pecking order at Old Trafford, with Wayne Rooney, Danny Welbeck and Javier Hernandez preferred over the Bulgarian by Sir Alex Ferguson.

Berbatov’s future has been unclear, but Emil Danchev has stated that the striker will leave United in the next transfer window.

“I had three meetings with Alex Ferguson,” Danchev admitted to Bulgarian media, translated to English by Sky Sports.

“We should accept that he’ll try to build a team for the next three or four years and Berbatov will not be part of this team.

“Ferguson wants to change the playing style, to implement more speed. I was pleased with United’s position as they said they’ll not oppose Berbatov’s move in the summer.

“Dimitar will most probably leave England but he doesn’t want to move to the U.S., Japan, United Arab Emirates or championships like these,” he stated.
