Man City boss Mancini remains coy over push for Arsenal's Van Persie

Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini is coy over interest in Arsenal striker Robin van Persie.

Mancini refused to confirm if van Persie was on his list of transfer targets this summer and admits he does not expect any imminent moves at the Etihad Stadium.

"Van Persie? He is an Arsenal player and I don't want to disrespect Wenger," Mancini told Sky Sport Italia.

"We have four strikers and we will start the preseason in five days, it's unlikely there will be major changes in such a short time."
