Will Van Persie still be at Arsenal come the 18th August? By AH
Today The Daily Mirror has reported that Arsenal captain Robin van Persie could start the Premier League season still as a Gunners player.
The Gunner’s captain announced on the 4th July, that he had no intentions of signing a new contract. Since then, fans’ opinions have been divided on what should happen to him, there have been various media reports on him and even quotes from current and former players on Van Persie’s situation. One month later (tomorrow), and Van Persie is still at Arsenal and I think that everyone has just about had enough of this saga by now. I mean, we even saw Wenger get angry with a Journalist in the last Press Conference in Asia, when asked about the situation.
The Netherlands international has been linked with a move away from the club, with Juventus, Manchester City and Manchester United all in the mix, but time is running out for van Persie to make his move.
Juventus are said to have given van Persie a deadline of August 7th to come to a decision over his future. The Serie A champions are understood to have grown tired of waiting for van Persie to make up his mind, but the Italian clubs have their own problems, with a match fixing scandal surrounding the club, and so I’m not surprised that Van Persie is waiting to see the final outcome of that situation before making his decision. They have reportedly warned the Dutchman’s camp that if they do not receive a positive response by Tuesday they will look elsewhere.
As for the two Manchester clubs, they have become less keen after looking at his demands, so could we see Van Persie still at the club come the start of the season? Could Wenger’s strengthening of the squad convince the striker that he could pick up a trophy with Arsenal?
