Manchester United are expected to strike a deal with Tottenham in the next 24 hours and put an end to months of speculation surrounding the player's future.

It now looks as though the future of Dimitar Berbatov has been decided and he will be a Manchester United player by the time the new season starts after reports said that Berbatov's agent, Emil Dantchev has been working on a deal last night for the star who has made it clear that he wants to join the European Champions.

Manchester United are expected to table a £28m bid for the striker and Spurs who have been holding out for £30m are expected to settle for slightly less.

Spurs hoped to hang on to their man who has scored 46 goals since joining them from Bayer Leverkusen in July 2006.

But with the player's desire to join the European Champions and play Champions League football it looks like they have lost the battle of keeping him at White Hart Lane.
