Manchester united have shot into pole position in the race to sign wantaway Arsenal stricker Robin van persie.Earlier this week Roberto Mancini virtually conceded defeat in his attempts to lure the Dutchman to city and Juventus, the other contenders in a three-way-battle are now thought to have cooled their interest after being confronted with his hefty wage demands.

That leaves the Reds at the front of the queue, and Manchester Evening News Sport understands Van persie could jet in to sign as early as tonight.
The targetman, who turned 29 on Sunday, was photographed training with his team-mates on Monday in Germany where the Arsenal squad are currently on tour.They take on FC Cologne on Sunday but it is unlikely van persie will still be a Gunner by then.
What i even like about all this is that i heard Van Persie saying it this morning that he'll like to join Man.united,I would be very happy.
