da leao： Arsene Wenger has confessed his hands were tied in the sale of his talismanic striker, Robin Van Persie to Manchester United.
The colossal transfer £24 million deal has changed the landscape of this season’s Premier League title race. While infuriating Arsenal fans who have once again seen a marquee player leave their club for new pastures.
Working for French television station TF1, Wenger confessed he was powerless to stop the deal; “It’s never great to lose players of that quality but he only had a year left on his contract so we had no choice.” (Sky Sports)
The 62 year old also admitted that new signings Lukas Podolski and Olivier Giroud were brought in as replacements for the Dutchman.
Previous summer transfer windows have seen influential talents such as Cesc Fabregas, Samir Nasri and Gael Clichy exit the club, undermining the ambitions of the French boss to end a seven year trophy drought.
