„Manchester United“ wants to keep striker Robin van Persie in their ranks and will start negotiations on extending his contract in January - goal.com reports.
„The Red Devils“ usually offer only one-year contracts to players over the age of thirty, but club representatives seem willing to make an exception for the Dutchman. The club wants to add two more years to the contract, which expires in the summer of 2016.
It is believed that van Persie will continue to earn €319,000 per week until the current contract ends, but his salary will drop to €127,000 when a new one takes effect, as the striker will have veteran status.
The club is convinced that the Dutchman can still bring a lot of benefits, and it is also believed that there will be a lot of interest in this sniper in the final year of his contract.
Therefore, „Man United“ intends to offer the footballer a contract until the summer of 2018, thus providing conditions for finishing his career in Manchester. On the other hand, the player himself would still like to play in his homeland before hanging up his boots.
