Sir Alex Ferguson insists he did not name Dimitar Berbatov when he announced Manchester United have made a bid for a player.

Ferguson claims his remarks were misreported and he has warned Tottenham against reporting United over the transfer speculation.

Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy has hinted he could report United to Fifa, claiming they have courted Berbatov in public.

But Ferguson said: "It is going to be very embarrassing for them.

"But you know what Daniel Levy is like. He is different."

United drew 1-1 with Kaizer Chiefs in a friendly in South Africa.

Ferguson added: "It was a good competitive game and the Kaizer Chiefs played well.

"We found ourselves 1-0 down and that makes it hard because you are still looking for fitness and rhythm to your game.

"I think we deserved a draw. It was a good workout and a competitive game with lots of tasty tackles.

"That brings an edge to your game and I was very pleased to get that kind of competition today."
