Van Persie ponders writing off £10M Man Utd bonus for Juventus move

Robin van Persie is weighing up writing off £10 MILLION by quitting Manchester United this summer. The Sunday Mirror says the Dutchman is a target for Italian giants Juventus and is open to a move to Italy after becoming disillusioned with life at Old Trafford.

If RVP leaves he will miss out on a £10million loyalty bonus he is due to receive if he spends the final two years of his contract with the champions.

But his head has been turned by renewed interest from Turin during a season of turmoil at United.

Sources close to the player believe a deal can be done if Juventus offer the Reds a decent return on the £24million they paid Arsenal 19 months ago and are also able to get close to Van Persie's current £250,000-a-week wages.
