Robin van Persie backed for Arsenal FC exit

Arsenal captain Robin van Persie is odds-on to quit the club at the end of the season as a result of the humiliating defeat against AC Milan in midweek.

The Gunners were hammered 4-0 by Milan on Wednesday night and that has led to bookmakers bet365 making Van Persie just 4/11 to leave Arsenal before the end of the 2012 Summer Transfer Window.

Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Manchester City are all believed to be keen on signing the 28-year-old, who has less than eighteen months left on his existing contract at Emirates Stadium and is unwilling to discuss a new deal until the end of the season at the earliest.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger knows he faces the prospect of being forced to sell his skipper this summer unless a new deal is agreed and bet365 spokesman Steve Freeth told Crunchsports.com: "Arsenal waved goodbye to Thierry Henry on Wednesday and Robin van Persie may not be too far behind him with the Gunners quoted at 33/1 for Champions League progression and 6/4 to finish in the top four."
