Man Utd starlet Josh Doughty compared to silky striker Berbatov

Manchester United youngster Josh Doughty has been likened to former star Dimitar Berbatov.

Doughty recently linked up with Manchester United and the striker has already managed to make quite an impression at the club.

Canada Under-20 coach Rob Gale is a huge admirer of Doughty and has now compared the 18-year old to former United star Berbatov.

Gale said: "He's almost in that Berbatov mould. In close control, tight quarters, he works the ball very nicely. He's very light of foot, a very technical player. Great in close quarters."
