Spanish heavyweight Atletico (Madrid) has moved to recruit Bulgarian striking duo Dimitar Berbatov and Martin Petrov.

After weeks of talks about Petrov's possible transfer, Atletico have now officially raised a bid for Berbatov as well, Bulgarian media said Thursday.

Berbatov's manager has confirmed that his club, Bayer Leverkusen, has received an offer from Atletico.

Meanwhile, negotiations between the Madrid team and Martin Petrov's Wolfsburg are continuing but the transfer faces financial disagreement.

Wolfsburg are insisting on a price of EUR 8 M, while Atletico are not prone to paying more than EUR 7 M.
