Arsenal boss Wenger will NOT buy Van Persie replacement

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger was coy last night over whether he would seek to buy a replacement for Robin van Persie.

 Van Persie will have a medical today at Manchester United after deal worth £24 million was struck between the two clubs.

Van Persie - Old Trafford bound

 Wenger has the best part of two weeks to spend some of the money before the transfer window is closed. He said on French TV on Wednesday night: "It’s sad to lose a player of his quality. He had only one year left on his contract so we didn’t have the choice."

 Asked who he would recruit, Wenger said: "We already signed Lukas Podolski and Olivier Giroud." - Lets hope Walcott still a Gunners after this 2012/2013 season!
