Robin van Persie is being tipped to move away from Manchester United in the summer - and re-sign with former club Arsenal. With new boss David Moyes intent on a stark overhaul of the Red Devils squad, the sharpshooting Dutchman could be a shock name out the door. The Mail on Sunday suggest the 30-year-old enjoys an uneasy relationship with the Scot after being upset by his decision to axe Rene Meulensteen from the coaching staff. The now Fulham boss is thought to have played a key role in helping Van Persie choose Manchester when he left the Gunners in 2012. And with rumours continuing to persist around his dislike for the new training methods, it is though the striker could looking for a way out at the end of the season. Another catalyst for any move could be strike partner Wayne Rooneys future at United. The paper hint that if the England man does indeed sign a bumper contract extension, that could hasten Van Persies exit from the club. Moyes is intent on stamping his own authority on the squad and has already broken the clubs transfer record to snap up Juan Mata from Chelsea. A host of established stars could soon find themselves surplus to requirements, with Rio Ferdinand, Patrice Evra, Nani and Ashley Young all potentially on the chopping block.
