Medical close: Manchester United to seal striker transfer deal
The Portugal worldwide signed a three-year deal with Fener on Monday to complete his €6 million move and he would welcome his ex- United team-mate with open arms.
Nani has already clinched a move from United to Fenerbahce and according to the Daily Mirror the club’s directors were in London for talks over Van Persie yesterday. He had an impressive season with the Portuguese outfit and despite that he was not included in Louis van Gaal’s plan for the next season.
Robin Van Persie will report to the Manchester United training base at Carrington today despite persistent rumours linking him with a transfer away from the club. “I am very happy and proud to be part of Fenerbahce“, Nani said. He never gave anything less than his hilarious, nigh-on uncontrollable best, and never could you accuse him of wittingly shirking his responsibilities.
“All I can say is that tomorrow [Monday], Robin will be back at Manchester United to report for the first training session”.
Van Gaal does not want a repeat of last season, when United managed only 13 points from their first 10 Premier League games.
Vos, however, has played down the speculation, telling Voetbal worldwide: “If Robin had found a new club, we would have announced it. And I’m in the Netherlands right now”. If United are to start their season with a win against Tottenham Hotspur, the attention to detail is likely to be imperative if United are to accrue some good form early on.
