Will Van Persie Join Manchester United?

Arsenal legend George Graham believes the club could be faced with no other choice than to sell striker Robin van Persie to Manchester United, if the Dutchman demands a move to Old Trafford.
The Red Devils, along with rivals Manchester City and Serie A giants Juventus and AC Milan, have been linked with a move for the unsettled forward who recently revealed he would not sign a fresh contract with the Gunners and would be satisfied even to walk away as a free agent next year, if he is not sold this summer. Arsenal have already rejected a bid from United for van Persie but Sir Alex Ferguson's side is expected to return with an improved offer.

"I think he will definitely be going. They won't want to see him through the contract and then be a free agent next summer. They will pick the best fee for him. It will be a great signing for Sir Alex. I wouldn't think Arsenal want to sell him to Manchester United. But they are not in the driving seat. If van Persie really wants to go there, then from a business sense they would have to sell him," TalkSport quoted Graham as saying.
