Berbatov joined United from Tottenham for a fee of £30.75m.
Solskjaer told MUTV: “The saga lasted all summer but we were always confident we’d found the right one.
“I think he’s the right one. His performances for Spurs have been great. I knew he was a good player when he played against us for Bayer Leverkusen.
“We’re delighted we’ve got him.”
