Arsenal have already rejected THREE offers for want-away striker Robin van Persie.

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has confirmed that he has made a bid for Van Persie.

The Daily Mail says three separate offers for Van Persie were submitted on Tuesday, with United offering in the region of £8million, Juventus £10m and Manchester City £12m - but all three offers were turned down by Arsenal chiefs, who want at least £20m for last season's Footballer of the Year.
