BT Sport land ex-Arsenal, Man Utd striker Van Persie

The summer is mainly used for freshening up squads, and television punditry is no different.

Ahead of the new season on BT Sport they have unveiled Robin Van Persie as the big name arrival, according to the Mirror.

The Dutchman would add a new layer to their team, and the Premier League winner will be a welcome sight for Manchester United and Arsenal fans.

It will be a major coup for BT to get one of the best strikers of the Premier League era, who has a reputation for being outspoken and having valuable insight.

BT have an outstanding cast list of pundits including Rio Ferdinand, Martin Keown and Owen Hargreaves, but some of them also work for other stations.
