According to reports Manchester United are to increase their offer for Arsenal striker Robin van Persie.

The Daily Star Sunday claims United will this week up their bid to £20 million for the Dutchman.

Last season’s PFA Players’ and Football Writers’ Player of the Year has become such a ­priority for manager Sir Alex ­Ferguson that United are prepared to pay over the odds for the striker, who only has one year left on his contract and is now 29.

United and ­Ferguson are convinced the ­Holland international wants to join them as they bid to win back their Premier League crown from rivals Manchester City.
