Robin van Persie förlänger kontraktet
Signaturen är på plats.
Nu är det så officiellt, Robin van Persie har förlängt kontraktet med Arsenal. Äntligen!
"I’m so happy to have signed a new long term contract. I’ve been at the Club for five years now and there really is a great feeling here at Arsenal", säger van Persie och tillägger, "We have a top class manager, a squad full of superb young players, a world class stadium and brilliant supporters. Arsenal Football Club has a very bright future and I want to be part of it."
Van Persie avslöjar också att klubben har en speciell plats i hans hjärta: "My heart is with Arsenal and I just can’t picture myself in a different shirt. I just can’t see it now because I love this Club so much. If you look at the last five years, look at the steps I have made every season, if you look at the support the Boss and the whole Club gave me, the fans gave me, my team mates gave me – this is the right decision."
Arsene Wenger är självklart glad över detta och säger: "It’s fantastic news that Robin van Persie has committed his long term future to Arsenal Football Club, we’re all delighted. Robin is a hugely gifted player and has the talent and goalscoring ability to win matches at the very top level. We have already seen many times what Robin is capable of on a football pitch, but at only 25, there is still much more to come from him. Robin has the potential to become a true Arsenal great."
Vi andas nu ut, efter en tid av rykten, och lutar oss tillbaka i brassestolen med en kopp kaffe.
