Dimitar Berbatov was left stunned after discovering a former Tottenham teammate had secretly supported Arsenal, and his reaction is exactly what Spurs supporters would expect.The 2025/26 season was nothing short of a test for Tottenham Hotspur supporters, who endured arguably the club’s most difficult campaign in more than a decade before survival was secured on the final day.It was not only the fans who suffered through the drama either. Former Tottenham striker Dimitar Berbatov admitted earlier this season that he never thought he would see the words ‘Tottenham’ and ‘relegation’ used in the same sentence, while making it clear that he desperately wanted his former club to stay in the Premier League.That is one of the reasons Spurs supporters have always maintained a soft spot for the Bulgarian. Even years after leaving North London, Berbatov regularly shows support for Tottenham, particularly during North London Derby week.Now, fans will love hearing how he reacted when he discovered that one of his former Tottenham teammates had secretly grown up supporting Arsenal.Credit: Tony Mureithi / @tonym_visuals / @tonym_visualssportsDimitar Berbatov could not believe Darren Bent’s Arsenal confessionSpeaking on talkSPORT‘s Drive alongside Andy Goldstein and Darren Bent ahead of Soccer Aid, Berbatov found himself involved in a hilarious exchange about the Champions League final.Goldstein pointed towards Bent and revealed to Berbatov that the former Tottenham striker was actually an Arsenal fan. A surprised Berbatov immediately responded: “What do you mean Arsenal fan?”After Bent appeared guilty for not telling Berbatov, Goldstein then asked: “Hold on, did you not know this when you played together?”Bent replied: “No, I’m not going to announce it, am I?”The revelation left Berbatov laughing before jokingly telling his former teammate to “get out”. When asked how Bent had managed to keep it hidden, the former England striker explained, “I didn’t walk in and go, ‘By the way, everyone, I’m an Arsenal fan.”Berbatov cheekily responded: “You see? Secrets.”When asked what he made of the revelation, the Bulgarian added: “I’m not going to say it. Because, obviously, playing for Spurs, rivalry with Arsenal is a big one.”Dimitar Berbatov has never forgotten what Tottenham did for himIn the same interview, despite admitting he always admired Arsenal’s style of football in general, Berbatov still revealed that he was supporting Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final largely because of his connection to Tottenham.Berbatov then proceeded to thank Tottenham for allowing him to prove himself in English football after arriving from Bayer Leverkusen.The Bulgarian said: “Spurs were the team who gave me the opportunity to show what I could do in England, you don’t forget that.“It helped me develop as a player.”READ MORE: I played for Arsenal but I think Tottenham could compete for Premier League title with a fit squadThe post ‘Get out’ – Dimitar Berbatov stunned to learn his old Tottenham teammate secretly supports Arsenal appeared first on Spurs Web.
