Robin van Persie 'to snub Manchester United loyalty bonus'

Robin van Persie is ready to miss out on a loyalty bonus as he intends to quit Manchester United in the summer, according to a report.

The Dutchman is thought to be a target for Italian champions Juventus, and The Mirror claims that the striker is willing to forgo a £10m bonus, which he would earn if he enters the last two years of his contract with the Red Devils.

While United have publicly said that Van Persie is not for sale, the club are believed to be considering a deal with the Turin outfit if they are able to get a decent return on the £24m fee paid to Arsenal for the 30-year-old in 2012.

Van Persie was substituted 63 minutes into United's 3-0 win at West Bromwich Albion in the Premier League on Saturday.
