Agent hints at Petrov move at end of season

STILIAN PETROV’S agent has hinted that the Bulgarian could move on at the end of the season.

The midfielder is one of the lynchpins of Martin O’Neill’s side, which is on course for another joust at the Champions League next season.

Everton had been strongly rumoured to be interested in making a bid this month, with manager Davie Moyes having taken in Celtic’s 2-1 Tennent’s Scottish Cup victory over Rangers on Sunday.

Petrov’s agent Latchezar Tanev made it clear that no move to Merseyside was imminent and that 25-year-old was happy at Parkhead. But he tantalisingly predicted that those circumstances could change in a few months’ time.

The midfielder is the captain of his national side and so famous a figure back home that his wedding was broadcast on television.
