Today’s “Daily Mail” announced shocking transfer news for the upcoming summer, the forward who brought Manchester United their 20th Premier League title, Robin Van Persie, is set to return to north London.

The Daily Mail states that discord inside Manchester United has reached stratospheric levels, and players want out. Apparently, yesterday’s defeat at Britannia Stadium caused the relationship between manager Moyes and the Dutch striker, Robin Van Persie, to become very unpleasant. Last season’s Premier League’s top goalscorer and the player who brought the title to Old Trafford is very disappointed about his treatment in the club.

After taking over at Manchester United, Moyes fired all of Sir Alex Ferguson’s assistants and appointed members of his own staff. That is one of the reasons why Van Persie is unhappy. Rumors also include his dissatisfaction with training regime, and many fans suspects that the new type of training is the main reason why the Dutch forward was injured in the middle of December for over a month-and-a-half.

From all this, the Daily Mail concludes that Van Persie will leave Old Trafford this summer, and adds that the player wants to return to his former club, Arsenal. As reminder, RVP came to Manchester United from Arsenal for 24.000.000 £.

From the current point of view, all this sounds as a big rumor and looks very unrealistic. Arsenal fans we’re very angry at Van Persie when he left the club, especially after 8 long years of support they gave him during his time in North London. However, in the world of modern football, we see that everything is possible, so we just have to wait for the summer transfer window.
