Coach Roberto Mancini would like to see striker Robin van Persie in the team.

The 28-year-old footballer is demonstrating impressive athletic form this season and has become a true leader in London. Meanwhile, Manchester club's journey in the Champions League will likely end after the group stage, so they will be looking for reinforcements, reports "Daily Mail".

Van Persie's contract will expire at the end of the next season, and negotiations for its extension are currently not taking place.

This season in the Premier League, Van Persie scored thirteen goals in thirteen matches.
