Queens Park Rangers are plotting an ambitious bid for Dimitar Berbatov.

The Bulgarian forward top scored for Manchester United during the 2010-11 season, but he fell down the pecking order at the Old Trafford club last term.

Sir Alex Ferguson is prepared to let the former Tottenham Hotspur striker leave this summer, and is willing to accept just £5million for his signature.

It is believed Mark Hughes has set his sights on adding Berbatov to his squad at Loftus Road, in what would be one of the coups of the pre-season.
