The Arsenal talisman looks set to move away from Emirates Stadium this summer, and his contract has a clause that allows the two Eredivisie clubs to receive some amount of the transfer fee.
Prolific Arsenal striker, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Robin-van-Persie-c31380, has revealed that he will not prolong his stay at Emirates Stadium. The Dutchman has an ongoing contract at the English Premier League outfit that is due to expire in the summer of 2013.
With the 28-year-old making his intentions clear, the Gunners are left with no choice but to sell their prized asset before the summer transfer window slams shut.
Manchester City, Manchester United, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 and Juventus are reportedly taking keen interest in signing the Dutch international, who joined the English top flight club in the summer of 2004 after making 61 Eredivisie appearances
for Feyenoord Rotterdam.
The prolific attacker’s contract has a clause that forces the Gunners to pay a small percentage of his transfer fee to the Rotterdammers and SBV Excelsior if they sell the striker before his contract expires.
With the Dutch hit-man’s departure from Emirates Stadium looking imminent, the Stadiumclub technical director, Martin van Geel, has revealed that the fee will be a bonus for his club.
“It is a training fee. We really see this as a bonus. We are not hoping that Van Persie leaves, but it would be an excellent bonus for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Feyenoord-c39258 if he does take steps to leave Arsenal before his contract expires”, Van Geel was
quoted as saying to the media.
Meanwhile, the Kralingers managing director, Simon Kelder, has confessed that although the club will not receive great amount, every little bit certainly helps.
“It is five percent of five percent, so no, for us that does not mean much. But of course, every little bit helps. Anyway, we must first all wait and see”, Kelder said while talking to journalists.
Van Persie has thus far netted an impressive 96 goals in 194 English Premier League appearances while donning the jersey of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429. However, it seems like that the Dutchman has now become frustrated after failing to win silverware
apart from a FA Cup and FA Community Shield triumph since joining the Gunners.
