Robin Van Persie

Cesc Fabregas said that Arsenal "cannot afford to loose" Robin van Persie. The 28-year old Dutchman is still to decide his future club as his contract is about to end.

"I don't know if they will keep him," Fábregas said. "It is his decision. At his age, if he wants to move, it will be his last chance and if he wants to stay he will stay and retire at Arsenal. We will see what he decides but he's been very loyal to Arsenal for a few years. He is a key player, the fans love him. For me, he is the role model of Arsenal, the star player and they cannot afford to lose him."

The club had a poor start after Cesc Fabregas  and Samir Nasri left the club. Arsene Wengar and majority share holder, Stan Kroenke had no option, due to financial reasons, but to sell Nasri to Manchester City in August, while Fabregas went to his home club, Barcelona.
