After much speculation, Berbatov completed a move to Manchester United on 1 September 2008 for a fee of around £30.75 million, with Fraizer Campbell joining Tottenham on a season-long loan as part of the deal.[24][25] This came despite Tottenham accepting a bid for Berbatov from Manchester City on the same day.[26] Berbatov's contract to United is for four years,[27] and he will wear the number 9 shirt previously worn by Louis Saha. Berbatov later insisted he never even considered a move to Manchester City.[28]. Berbatov marked his Manchester United debut with an assist to a Carlos Tévez goal away to Liverpool.[29] He scored his first two goals for Manchester United in their 3–0 win away to Aalborg BK in the Champions League group stage on 30 September 2008.[30] He scored his first league goal, for United, with the third goal in the 4–0 victory over West Bromwich Albion on 18 October 2008. On 17 January 2009, he scored a last-minute goal to secure a 1–0 away win over Bolton Wanderers and help United to the top of the Premier League table for the first time in the season.[31] from : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimitar_Berbatov
