Report: Fenerbahce want Robin van Persie

Manchester United striker Robin van Persie has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for Turkish giants Fenerbahce.

The 31-year-old joined United from Arsenal in 2012 and struck 26 league goals as Sir Alex Ferguson's side lifted the Premier League title in the 2012-13 season.

Since then, the Dutchman has netted 28 times in 53 games, but it is widely thought that the forward will be made surplus to requirements at the end of this season, despite his close relationship with current boss Louis van Gaal.

According to The Sun, Fenerbahce are interested in signing Van Persie and will make an official offer at the end of the season.

A number of European clubs are also said to be monitoring proceedings.
