Berbatov adds to woes

Date published: 20 November 2008


DIMITAR Berbatov has added to Manchester United’s mounting injury troubles.

The Reds’ striker limped out of Bulgaria’s friendly against Serbia last night with a hamstring strain and could be a major doubt for Saturday’s league game at Aston Villa.

Rio Ferdinand (back) and Wayne Rooney (calf) had earlier withdrawn from England’s squad for the friendly against Germany as had Darren Ferguson (knee) from the Scotland squad to play Argentina.

United’s injury list also includes Gary Neville, Wes Brown, Ryan Giggs, Owen Hargreaves and Paul Scholes.
