I want to play more – Berbatov

DIMITAR Berbatov expects to remain at Manchester United beyond this season - but has reiterated his disenchantment at his lack of playing time.

The 31 year old was linked with a move away from Old Trafford in January but no deal was completed. It is now believed the club will activate a one–year extension to his contract, written into the deal when he signed from Tottenham in 2008.

Berbatov has started only five of United's 24 league games this season and was famously left out of the squad for last season's Champions League final.

Speaking about his future at United, Berbatov added: "There was nothing concrete as an offer to me.

“I read about such things, but they are more speculation. The clause to extend my contract for another year is automatically activated in March. I know nothing more."
