RVP wants Man Utd stay

Dutch sensation Robin van Persie has revealed his desire to stay at Old Trafford beyond the summer.

The Netherlands international has had an injury plagued season until now.

Recent reports had suggested that United manager Louis van Gaal was fed up with the player's injury concerns, and was considering offloading the former Arsenal star at the end of the season.

However, The Mail now cites that the 31-year-old is happy to remain at the Mancunian giants next season, in spire of not being the club's first choice striker.

Van Persie has scored 10 league goals for United this season.
