Tottenham striker Dimitar Berbatov has confirmed Milan have made enquiries about luring him to the San Siro - and the Bulgaria international would be "flattered" if that interest escalates to a concrete bid.

Berbatov's future at White Hart Lane has been the subject of intense speculation since last summer, when Manchester United were reportedly keen on making a swoop for him.

The forward's form this season has attracted interest from the continent too, with Italian giants Milan the latest suitors to be linked with the 27-year-old's services.

"All I can say is that there was an interest from the Italian club, that is all I can say," Berbatov said.

"If it produces negotiations I will be flattered."

And on the subject of United, he added: "I know that Sir Alex [Ferguson] has wanted me for a quite a while, but at the moment I am a player of Tottenham."
