Manchester United have confirmed they have agreed a deal to sign Robin van Persie from Arsenal.
The announcement comes after an intense period of
negotiations and is subject to Dutch striker Van Persie passing a
medical test and agreeing personal terms.
“Manchester United is pleased to announce it has
reached agreement with Arsenal Football Club for the transfer of Robin
Van Persie,” said a club statement.
“The deal is subject to a medical and the agreement of personal terms. A further announcement will be made in due course.”
It is not anticipated there will be any problems with either remaining part of the deal.
And providing it goes through without a hitch, Van
Persie could face Everton in United’s opening Premier League game at
Goodison Park on Monday.
No fee has been confirmed by United, although it is
believed to be around the £20m mark, with further payments to Arsenal
depending upon success in the future.
