Robin van Persie has declared that Manchester United will be his last club.
Van Persie, 29, has been a revelation in his first season at United following his £24million move from Arsenal last summer.
The Holland striker has scored 23 goals in 38 games for Sir Alex Ferguson's side and said he intends to finish his career at Old Trafford.
Speaking to Voetbal International, van Persie said: "The coming years it's Manchester United. And maybe longer. United would be my last club.
"You
have a number of clubs in Europe where older players can find it good,
where they are valued. You used to have that at Juventus and AC Milan,
Manchester United today is a good example. So who knows how long I stay
at the club.
"I have every day at United a new challenge. My
development is an ongoing process. That gets an extra boost when you are
surrounded by new coaches and teammates, all with their own ideas, in a
totally new environment." An armful: Robin Van Persie of Netherlands celebrates with team mate Arjen Robben
