TOTTENHAM - BRAGA BERBATOV SHOW

Dimitar Berbatov is born on January 30, 1981, in Sofia.

The CSKA PFC player Dimitar Berbatov has all the qualities necessary to be a top striker, combining strong physique with impressive speed and a deft touch.

Berbatov’s international debut came against Greece in 1999, when Berbatov was still just 18 years old. Currently (20th August 2008) he has played a total of 65 matches with the national squad, confirming his fame as a goalmaker with 41 successful strokes.

Berbatov played for his local side PFC Pirin Blagoevgrad until he was spotted by PFC CSKA Sofia manager Dimitar Penev, the former Bulgaria star, in 1998. He struck 26 goals in 49 appearances for CSKA, winning a Bulgarian Cup in 1999.

A move to Italian club Lecce looked on the cards, only to fall through at the last minute.

However, shortly after Berbatov produced a five-goal blitz in an 8-0 UEFA Cup qualifying round thumping of Constructorul from Moldova, CSKA announced they had agreed a USD 1.2 M deal to sell him to Bayer Leverkusen in January 2001, just before his 20th birthday. After 6 successful years in Bayer, from summer of 2006 Berbatov is already player of FC Tottenham Hotspur (London, UK).
