Robin van Persie tells Manchester United he wants to stay

Robin van Persie  has told Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal he is happy to stay at Old Trafford next term and believes he can contribute to the side, according to the Daily Mail.

The Dutch striker left Arsenal for United in the summer of 2012 and went on to fire the Red Devils to the Premier League title during Sir Alex Ferguson's final season.

Van Persie's future has flown under the radar, probably aided by his recent absence but a source close to the striker told the Daily Mail: ‘Robin is in no rush to leave. He still thinks he can achieve things and contribute at Old Trafford.’

There have recently been rumours that Van Persie could make a shock return to his former club in the summer.
