London's "Arsenal" is determined to make every effort to keep the striker Robin van Persie, who does not want to play for the club.
According to sources from the website goal.com, this week the team representatives will meet with the player and personally inform him that he will have to represent the team of the English capital for another year.
"Arsenal" is willing to take the risk and hopes that after the next season, R. van Persie will lose interest from famous teams and will have no choice but to extend his expiring contract.
"We will try to keep the Dutchman with his current contract. When he turns 30, it will be easier to persuade the player to link his future with the team. We hope that during the season he will change his mind," the source said.
The London club risks losing 20-25 million pounds sterling, which they would earn this summer by selling the prolific striker.
