Dimitar Berbatov makes AS Monaco switch

Bulgarian striker Dimitar Berbatov has joined French giants AS Monaco on a temporary basis from Fulham for the rest of the season.

The former Manchester United star had been linked with an exit from the club since the start of the winter, following the Cottagers' poor show in the Premier League this season.

The 33-year-old will see out the remainder of the season at the Stade Louis II.

Berbatov's current deal with Fulham is set to expire in the summer.
