Bulgarian footballer, Dimitar Ivanov Berbatov has a net worth of $19.5 million. He plays as a striker for Manchester United. He captained the Bulgarian national team from 2006 to 2010, and is its all-time leading goalscorer. He has also won the Bulgarian Footballer of the Year a record seven times, surpassing the number of wins by Hristo Stoichkov.
Top scorer for Manchester United in 2011 but left out of the squad for the Champions League final, Berbatov has largely been sidelined by Sir Alex Ferguson this season and is likely to leave the club this 2012 summer. The 31-year-old Bulgarian is a member of a very small club of players (Alan Shearer, Jermaine Defoe, and Andrew Cole) to have scored five goals during a game in England's top flight, a feat he achieved against Blackburn Rovers in 2011. He may struggle to secure a deal at another club paying him £80,000 a week (£4.2m a year), but would probably trade some of that for regular football.
