Premier League - Paper Round: Van Persie could make shock Arsenal return.

                                                                                
Robin van Persie could make a shock return to Arsenal in the summer.
As predicted in this column last week, Manchester United manager David Moyes plans a mass makeover of the squad at the end of the season.
Indeed, after unveiling Juan Mata at the start of the week, Moyes made hints about a substantial clearout followed by a spending spree to rejuvenate United in the close season.

And the biggest shock sale could be Van Persie – especially if United succeed in persuading Wayne Rooney to stay rather than move to Chelsea or PSG.
It is understood that while Moyes seems to have made Rooney feel more comfortable at the club, there is an uneasy relationship between the new United boss and Van Persie.
I understand that Van Persie, whose goals fired United to the title last season, has been upset by the departure of Sir Alex Ferguson and his fellow Dutchman, coach Rene Meulensteen, who did much to persuade the striker to leave Arsenal to join United for £24million in the summer of 2012.
The departure of that pair was not in the script when, after much deliberation, Van Persie opted to leave Arsenal.

It is also understood that Van Persie and his family have not settled as well amongst the ‘Cheshire set’ as opposed to where they had previously resided in the London area.
There have also been reports from Holland that Van Persie has not been happy with the new United training regime.
Much about Van Persie’s future will hang on whether Rooney stays or not.

                                                                                                                                 
If Rooney remains at Old Trafford, then Van Persie could be on his way and it is understood he would love to re-join the Gunners.
As a rule, Arsene Wenger doesn’t tend to sign players over the age of 30 but he may well make an exception in the case of 30-year-old Van Persie – especially if he’s available for a fee in the region of £15m.
A long list of United’s established stars are set for the exit in the summer including Rio Ferdinand, Nemanja Vidic, Patrice Evra, Nani, Ashley Young and Antonio Valencia.
