Phillips has started every match at the tournament and formed a formidable midfield partnership with Declan Rice.

His performances have the caught the eye of Berbatov, who won two Premier League titles in a four-year spell with Manchester United.

He told : “Kalvin Phillips stood out again too.

“He's been one of the players of the tournament and, sooner or later, I expect him to leave Leeds for a bigger club.

Paul Pogba is another player who has had a solid tournament, despite France’s shock last-16 exit to Switzerland.

The Manchester United midfielder was superb against Germany and Portugal, before scoring a Goal of the Tournament contender in the Switzerland defeat.

He has even been selected in marvelbet369.com's team of the tournament for Euro 2020.

There have always been suggestions Pogba performs better for his country than club.

And Berbatov has come up with a novel solution to solve that problem… wear his France shirt under his United top!

The former striker said: “Paul Pogba looked outstanding for France at Euro 2020, even though his team were knocked out in the second round.

“He needs to be the same player for United. He looks like he has more freedom for France, and possibly more motivation, although he does suffer from the same lapses in concentration.

“If Pogba can improve the defensive side of his game, and not lose the ball, he could be the complete midfielder.

“We all know his quality is there. The goal he scored against Switzerland was unbelievable.
 
“Some players do find it easier to get motivated for their national side. I remember I was going through a dry spell for Bayer Leverkusen.

“At the same time, I was still scoring for Bulgaria. So I thought, 'f*** it, I'll wear my Bulgaria shirt under my Leverkusen shirt.

“It didn't actually help me, but the point is I was willing to try anything to start scoring for my club again.”
