Sky Sports News understands that Dimitar Berbatov is currently holding talks with Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
A tug-of-war is developing for the Bulgaria international's services with Manchester City having seen a shock deadline day bid in excess of £30million accepted by Tottenham.
The Spurs striker has been tracked by the Premier League and European champions throughout the summer and has previously intimated that a move to Old Trafford is his 'dream'.
City stunned the football world with their audacious late approach, but United remain very much in the equation.
Real report
Mark Hughes has told Sky Sports News that he hopes to meet Berbatov later in the day, but Ferguson is already sitting down with the talented forward at the club's Carrington training ground.
Berbatov has been left out of Juande Ramos' plans for the club's last two matches, with the coach feeling his presence was a disruptive influence on the rest of the squad.
Ramos admitted earlier in the day he wanted the saga to be resolved one way or another, and has targets in mind to replace the Bulgarian.
To add further confusion to the saga, reports from Spain suggest that Real Madrid are planning to make a €45million (£36.5million) bid for his services.
