Robin Van Persie’s current predicament at Arsenal has a take a major twist in the last couple of days, with some claiming that he might sign another contract at the Emirates following his decision to travel with the squad.
The Gunners journeyed to Cologne for a pre-season friendly, but the match has been overshadowed by rumours that the attacker could return to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 for a medical check-up with Manchester United.
Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Paulo-c29431 is keen to add a star name at Old Trafford.
Van Persie joining the Red Devils could be a dream come to for the club fans, who imagine him playing alongside http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wayne-Rooney-c36736 up-front.
Now Ferguson has spoken openly to the media about the transfer saga and claimed that they were negotiating with their Premier League rivals over a summer swoop.
Manchester City had been previously linked with the forward, but alongside Juventus their interest has cooled in recent weeks, giving United the incentive.
“We have made a bid and they've been trying to negotiate with other clubs.”
“I don't have a gut feeling on it at the moment, I must admit. We're not getting any breakthrough with Arsenal. It's difficult to say why they're operating this way. I don't know what their thoughts are because they're not giving anything away,” the Scot
was quoted as saying.
United have been impressive during pre-season and the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Robin-van-Persie-c31380, the club could really send out a strong message to the rest of the Premiership.
