With Dimitar Berbatov's departure from White Hart Lane, Keane expressed his fondness for the former Manchester United forward.

Keane claims that the two of them worked well together since neither of them was self-serving.

In an interview with Sky Sports, Keane described him as "amazing".

After joining from Bayern Leverkusen in 2006, Berbatov made an indelible impression on English football by scoring more than 100 goals for Tottenham, Manchester United, and Fulham. One of the best forwards in the Premier League, he is unquestionably one of the most elegant.

Berbatov won two Premier League crowns, a Club World Cup, and a League Cup during his time at Manchester United.
