Robin van Persie returns to Arsenal and an uncertain future

Robin van Persie has had his first face-to-face encounter with Arsène Wenger since declaring that he would not sign a new contract at Arsenal when he reported as scheduled for the first day of his pre-season training.

The club captain, whose return had been delayed due to his participation at Euro 2012 with Holland, underwent his medical assessment and he and the manager sought to put a professional front on what has been a deep fissure in their relationship.

Van Persie shocked everyone at the club with his statement on 4 July, which was posted on his official website and effectively said he wanted to leave because he disagreed with Wenger and the board of directors "in many aspects … on the way Arsenal should move forward".

Wenger had the greatest reason to feel let down, and not only because Van Persie's statement weakened Arsenal's negotiating position with clubs that covet him, chief among them Manchester City.

Wenger went to great lengths last season to protect Van Persie from questions about his future, which became an issue when he announced in September that he would not open new contract talks until the summer. Van Persie's deal has 12 months to run.

One of the pressing issues concerns whether Van Persie will be on the Arsenal flight to Kuala Lumpur on Saturday, for their pre-season tour of Asia, which also takes in Beijing and Hong Kong. Arsenal play City at Beijing's Bird's Nest stadium on Friday week.

The touring situation mirrors those of Cesc Fábregas and Samir Nasri last summer, two players that wanted to leave Arsenal at the time. Fábregas, who would sign for Barcelona, did not tour Malaysia and China because of a muscular injury but Nasri did travel. On a tour that was notable for the volume of promotional appearances made by the players, Nasri did no PR work. He went on to sign for City.

Arsenal are preparing to take Van Persie with them, reasoning that, as with Nasri last time, he is a fully fit member of their squad. The situation will change only if he is injured in training or a potential transfer becomes significantly more likely.

City appear to be the only club with the means to pay a massive fee and salary for a player with a questionable fitness record who turns 29 next month but there remain obstacles even for them. Their ranks are bloated with expensively paid strikers and they must sell some of them before they can consider a move for Van Persie, which will not be easy.

Emmanuel Adebayor is poised to sign for Tottenham Hotspur but either Carlos Tevez or Edin Dzeko might have to go, too, along with Roque Santa Cruz. Uefa's incoming financial fair play regulations are on the minds of the City board.

Arsenal want a quick resolution to the affair but City might reason that it is in their interests to bide their time. Wenger continues to hope that Van Persie can be persuaded to change his mind or that, if City cannot make the deal happen, the player will refocus for the coming season at Arsenal.
 
Van Persie turns to be Van PESA.

Cashly na Flamini hawakuwahi kuwa ma-captain.
 
Hivi hakuna timu inayomuhitaji?

Ndo kwanza ametoka kwenye majeruhi. Kama hamumtaki, Wenger anamtaka. Mi personally namkubali. Najua wengi hapa walikua wanataka Rosicky auzwe kipindi anaumia-umia na akirudi akawa hana kiwango kama cha mwanzo. But look at him now? A good run of games and he is running the midfield and tearing up defenses. He needs his chance to make up for the lost time + he is just 26 kama sikosei.. still got game time!

Robin van Persie: Arsenal dismiss Manchester United bid

By David Ornstein BBC Sport Comments (398)

Arsenal have dismissed Manchester United's bid for Robin van Persie, with offers from Manchester City and Juventus also short of their valuation.
It is understood Arsenal are reluctant to enter formal negotiations until a bid exceeds £20m and they are hopeful of holding out for £25-30m.
Van Persie in numbers


  • Van Persie earned Arsenal 27 points last season, based on his goals and assists - the most of any player in the league
  • In the 2011-12 season, he scored a goal every 111 minutes while he was on the pitch
  • His total of 30 Premier League goals was more than his combined total from the previous two seasons
  • The Dutchman converted one in five chances last season, while 58% of his 141 shots were on target - the best record in the league

Van Persie, 28, will not be part of the Gunners squad that leaves on Saturday for a pre-season tour to Asia.
The striker, whose contract ends in 2013, says he will not sign a new deal.
Van Persie scored 41 goals in 53 games for club and country last season and was named Professional Footballers' Association and Football Writers' player of the year.
However, he suffered a disappointing Euro 2012 campaign, scoring only once as the Netherlands were eliminated at the group stage.
After meeting with manager Arsene Wenger and chief executive Ivan Gazidis in mid-May, captain Van Persie revealed he had disagreed with both men on the way the Premier League club should move forward.
"I've thought long and hard about it, but I have decided not to extend my contract," he wrote on his website.

"This was a meeting about the club's future strategy and their policy. Financial terms or a contract have not been discussed, since that is not my priority at all.
"I personally have had a great season but my goal has been to win trophies with the team and to bring the club back to its glory days.
"Out of my huge respect for Mr Wenger, the players and the fans I don't want to go into any details, but unfortunately in this meeting it has again become clear to me that we in many aspects disagree on the way Arsenal FC should move forward."
Arsenal are scheduled to play matches in Malaysia, China and Hong Kong over the next two weeks.
They face a Malaysian XI on Tuesday in Kuala Lumpur, then head to Beijing to face Manchester City on 27 July. The Gunners finish their tour against Kitchee FC in Hong Kong on 29 July.
Van Persie will remain in England while his team-mates are away on tour, working on his fitness at Arsenal's London Colney training base.
