Fenerbahce move to quash Van Persie rumours

Fenerbahce have dismissed rumours that Robin van Persie is set to leave the Turkish Super Lig club.

Former Arsenal and Manchester United striker Van Persie moved from Old Trafford to Fenerbahce during the close season but has struggled to find his best form.

"Over recent days there were many transfer reports about Robin van Persie in the media," the statement read.

"But these are against our player's motivation. We don't have any idea for selling him and he wants to stay with us too.

"He is a valuable player of our squad and he is going to play for us."
