The red devils are ready to make an
improved bid
for the controversial Robin van Persie after
making a successful discussion with Arsenal on yesternight. Arsenal
are demanding a minimum £20 million bid for their Van Persie but
Manchester United have been reluctant to offer any amount more than
£15m for the gunners captain . The new bid is likely to be close to
Arsenal's demanded amount once and the two clubs are likely to go on
with the deal which has been a subject in the news. United are very
likely to sign Van Persie and
could even the Dutch striker may join them before their 2012/2013
English Premier League opener against Everton next week.
Manchester City had
been favourites to sign the player last season but they were unable to
go ahead due to financial issue.
Juventus are also out of the contest former the gunners striker,
leaving United with a clear deal despite
Arsenal's reluctance to sell the star player to a Englsh Premier
League rival team.
Arsenal however,seems to have concluded that they would rather sell
Van Persie this summer than keeping him unhappyly in the squad and
might even leave on a free transfer next summer when his contract
expires. Robin Van Persie, who is currently in Belgium on an
international duty with the Netherland national team, has publicly
announced that he will not for any reason sign a contract elongation
with Arsenal. United Boss Sir Alex Ferguson was unsure when asked last
week about
United's chances of signing the Arsenal captain, But Van Persie now
looks likely to successfully complete a move to Old Trafford where he
is expected to join new signings of united like Nick Powell, Shinji
Kagawa. Join teamsheadtohead on facebook at www.facebook.com/teamsheadtohead
