Arsene Wenger wants quick RVP solution
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is eager to find a solution to Robin van Persie’s contract situation, even if it is to sell him reports The Daily Mail.
The Netherlands international has less than a year left on his deal at the Emirates Stadium, and has made it clear that he will not prolong his stay with the Gunners.
Wenger now must decide whether to keep his captain and lose him for free next summer or sell his best player.
After last summer, when Arsenal lost Cesc Fabregas and Samir Nasri, the French coach had very little time to find replacements and as such the north London club started the season slowly.
This time round Wenger is eager for a solution to be found so he can find an able replacement and not be rushed in his transfer dealings.
Both Manchester clubs and Juventus are believed to be the frontrunners for Van Persie’s signature, with a deal in the region of £20 million in the offing.
Despite the summer signing of France striker Olivier Giroud, the Gunners are thought to be eyeing the likes of Robert Lewandowski and Stevan Jovetic as possible replacements for the Dutch hitman.

i think let Wenger sign a replacement bt let RVP complete his contract .By V P playing alongside the new signings, you never know he might be impressed hence extent his contract.

I believe keepin Rvp will not sugar well for the gunners, since he decided not to extend his contract, he should be sold and use his money to buy a goalkeeper and a defensive midfielder. We have enough strikers, I still believe we need a goalkeeper in arsenal and a strong defensive midfielder.

Make new signings one of which to be his replacement but refuse to release him until his contract is over. He might probably decide to end his career with the club as no other club will be willing to pay him huge wages by then.
