Arsenal set to hijack Van Persie move by grounding him at Emirates for another year

London, July 19(ANI): Arsenal is set to keep captain Robin Van Persie for another year at the Emirates, and has refused to entertain any offers for the Dutch international.

The 28-year-old striker has one year left on his contract at Arsenal, and club bosses have already said they will do their utmost to keep him despite Van Persie openly voicing his desire to move, The Daily Express reports.

Arsenal is set to tell Van Persie that they will not accept any offer for him this summer despite the Holland striker receiving bids from Manchester City, Manchester United and Juventus, according to the sources Juventus have offered the most solid offer so far, offering the Holland international a 6.3 million pound a year salary, meaning he would be the highest paid player in Italy when Ibrahimovic moves to French club Paris St Germain.

Arsenal is set to launch more talks with Van Persie this week. (ANI)
