Dimitar Berbatov's contract talks withu00a0 Manchester United have broken down and the Premier League's leading scorer could be heading out of Old Trafford this summer.
Berbatov was told the club were ready to hand him a two-year extension to his current deal, which runs out in in June 2012.
But when the Bulgarian returned to the negotiating table earlier this year, the offer had been downgraded to a one-year rolling deal, albeit on improved terms.u00a0
United are prepared to hike his wages from ufffd80,000-a-week to around ufffd120,000-a-week but there has been no indication from the Old Trafford hierarchy over the last six weeks that a longer contract will be on offer.
Berbatov, who did not travel with the squad to Gelsenkirchen for yesterday's semi-final against Schalke because of a groin injury, is unhappy that he has been relegated down the United pecking order despite heading the EPL scoring charts with 21 goals.
