Indian Super League side Kerala Blasters have signed former Manchester United and Tottenham striker Dimitar Berbatov.
Berbatov, 36, has signed a one-year contract with the club and will link up with former United teammate Wes Brown and head coach Rene Meulensteen, who was Sir Alex Ferguson's assistant at Old Trafford between 2007 and 2013.
Kerala announced the news in a tweet which read: "Golden touch, turns like a dream & a deadly finish. The Bulgarian Hitman is set to take ISL by storm."
Bulgaria's all-time record goalscorer, Berbatov moved to the Premier League in 2006, joining Tottenham from Bayer Leverkusen, and won the 2008 League Cup.
