Speculation surrounded a potential move in
2004 for the Bulgarian Footballer of the
Year, but it was May 2006, when Berbatov
finally joined Premier League side Tottenham
Hotspur for a fee of €16m,[7] (£10.9
million).[8] making him the most expensive
Bulgarian player in history. After being
granted a work permit, the transfer was
completed, and Berbatov joined Tottenham on 1
July 2006. He scored two goals in two minutes
in his first match as a Tottenham player
against Birmingham City in a pre-season
friendly match.[9]
Berbatov scored his first competitive
Tottenham goal 2 minutes into his home debut
in the Premiership game against Sheffield
United at White Hart Lane. He built up a
rewarding partnership with Robbie Keane in
the UEFA Cup until Spurs' departure to
Seville in the quarter-finals, and, despite
Martin Jol's rotation of his strikers,
Berbatov firmly established himself as the
first choice forward at the club. He scored
five goals in four games during the group
stage of the UEFA Cup, with his performances
earning two man-of-the-match awards in the
group stages against Besiktas and Club
Brugge.
Despite his good form in European
competition, Berbatov took a while to adapt
to the Premiership. However, he soon began to
regain the league form he had shown at
Leverkusen with an excellent performance
against Wigan, scoring one and creating the
other two in a 3--1 win. On 9 December 2006,
Berbatov scored his first Premiership brace
for Spurs in a 5--1 victory for his side
against Charlton Athletic. Berbatov came on
as a second half substitute against Fulham FC
in the FA Cup to score his first two goals in
the competition. Berbatov scored his first
away goal in the Premiership at Goodison Park
against Everton, a first-time shot from
around the penalty spot after an Aaron Lennon
cross. Spurs went on to win the match 2--1.
Berbatov and Spurs team-mate Robbie Keane
were named joint winners of the FA Premier
League Player of the Month award for April,
becoming the first players to share the award
since Arsenal's Dennis Bergkamp and Edu
jointly claimed the award back in February
2004. He scored the 100th goal of Tottenham's
2006--07 season with the first goal of a 2--0
victory over Charlton Athletic on 7 May 2007.
Berbatov is also one of the few people to
have two goals included in the BBC's goal of
the month competition shortlist, with his
sublime efforts against Wigan Athletic and
Middlesbrough both being included. Berbatov
ended the 2006--07 season with 12 goals in 33
appearances in the Premier League, and also
chipping in with 11 assists.
Due to his highly impressive displays,
especially in the latter half of the season,
he won the Tottenham Hotspur player of the
season award in 2006--07. Berbatov was also
included in the FA Premier League's PFA Team
of the Season on 21 April 2007, one of only
three players in the team not to play for
league winners Manchester United (the other
two being Steven Gerrard and Didier Drogba).
After Spurs narrowly lost to Arsenal in the
North London derby on 22 December 2007,
Arsenal manager Arsène Wenger compared
Berbatov to Thierry Henry.[10]
His first Spurs Premier League hat-trick came
on 29 December 2007 after he bagged four
goals in an incredible 6--4 win against
Reading FC.
Berbatov played in his first cup final for
Tottenham on 24 February 2008 in the Carling
Cup at Wembley Stadium against Chelsea in
which he scored an equalising penalty.
Tottenham went on to win the game 2-1 after
extra time, with Berbatov collecting his
first trophy in English football.[11] On 9
March, Berbatov scored a brace of headers in
the 4-0 demolition of West Ham United.[12]
This took his Premier League tally of goals
for the season to twelve, which was equal to
his 2007 league total. He ended the season
with 15 league goals and an identical overall
record of 23 goals and 11 assists. He again
scored Spurs' 100th goal of the season in
this campaign, hitting the opener in the 1-1
draw at Wigan on 19 April.
