Arsenal striker Robin Van Persie has revealed that he is no hurry to pen a new deal and commit his future to the club. Van Persie, named as Arsenal’s new skipper by Arsene Wenger following the departure of Cesc Fabregas to Barcelona earlier this summer, has two years left on his current contract.
Arsenal will be keen for Van Persie to commit his future to the club to avoid a Nasri like situation. The talented French midfielder refused to pen a new deal and the Gunners were forced to sell him to Man City in order to avoid losing him for nothing next summer.
Van Persie had this to say about penning a new deal
I do believe you have to look for a right moment to sit down and speak about your own stuff.
It’s not only about me, it’s about the team. We are not talking now because we are so busy – we have games every three or four days.
I still have almost two years left here, so for the moment that’s fine. But I don’t know, we will have to look.
I’m happy with my contract, I’m good. That’s how it is, I can’t say much more. I can’t look into the future.
