Arsene Wenger is adamant he will not sell any more of his Arsenal stars to Manchester United after Robin van Persie swapped the Emirates for Old Trafford last summer.
The Dutchman was part of the United team who turned out for the 1-1 draw between the two clubs in north London yesterday after being greeted with a guard of honour from his former team-mates. The Premier League top goalscorer was jeered throughout the game by the same fans who previously lauded him, but scored a penalty to cancel out Theo Walcott’s early opener.
Wenger sanctioned the £24million sale of Arsenal’s prize asset last summer after Van Persie notched up 37 goals in all competitions for the Gunners.When asked whether opposite number Sir Alex Ferguson was interested in any of his other players, Wenger repiled: ‘I don’t know but he will not sign them from us.’
