The Manchester United manager admits that the Red Devils are looking to sign the Arsenal striker after Arsenal revealed that United had made a bid for the want-away target-man who is in the last year of his contract at the
Emirates stadium...
The Manchester United boss has made it clear that the former champions of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 are interested in signing the Dutchman who is in the last year of his contract at Arsenal and has refused to sign an extension.
Arsenal find themselves in a tough situation as their striker has iterated that he is not interested in signing a new contract at the club or even an extension to his present one. Van Persie’s refusal to commit to the club now
means that there are several top outfits competing for his signature and the Dutchman can leave the club for free in the next league season if http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 do not sell him in the current transfer window.
Sir Alex Ferguson had been quiet about United’s interest in the Dutch striker before Arsenal made the Red Devils’ bid public. Van Persie will indeed add to Manchester United’s squad strength as he can partner Rooney up front but
Sir Alex Ferguson’s first approach for the Dutchman has been rejected already by the Gunners.
As far as speculation goes on the future of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Robin-van-Persie-c31380, Manchester City are believed to be the favourites to sign the prolific goal scorer but that depends on whether or not Arsenal can convince Van Persie to still change
his mind and sign a new contract at the club.
Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 said, "Obviously Arsenal have given out the fact that we've made a bid for him. We try to keep business as close as possible to us until the moment we conclude a deal. There's no point talking about something that might
not happen.”
He added, "There are other clubs interested in the player. We've shown an interest and that's where we're at the moment." United will hope that they can muster up a sizeable bid for the Dutch striker if they indeed want to bring
him to Old Trafford, a move that will bode well for the offensive department at the club as it was goal difference that lost them the league title last season.
