Goal.com, Manchester Uniteds attempt to sign Arsenal striker Robin van Persie are in jeopardy after reports have emerged that his agent is demining a £4 million cut of the deal. Kees Vos represents the Netherlands International, and despite Sir Alex Ferguson being keen to agree a deal for the 29-year-old services it seems that Van Persies agent could wreck the potential deal. Speculation is suggesting that the Arsenal captain is set to have a medical in Manchester in next few days ahead of a possible move to Manchester United or Manchester City, despite additional interest from Juventus. Sir Alex Ferguson has admitted a offer has been made but didnt comment on the outcome of the deal and seemed to suggest that The Gunners were holding out for more money on the deal. It is believed that Arsenal are holding out for between £20-25 million and whilst Ferguson has ranted about the ridiculous state of the market it seems even he will splash money when he needs to and has already spent over £21 million this summer, with a similar figure rumoured to be left in his kitty for further buys. Juventus, Manchester City, Barcelona, and Real Madrid have also shown interest in Van Persie but it does look like Manchester United will win the race depending on the decision of Van Persies agent.
