Van Persie's contract has a little over 12 months to run.

As I said in my post, 'reports said'. There are a number of reports from respected news sources. John Cross of The Mirror is close to the club. They could all be, and probably are, based on the same information but that would be stronger than 'twitter sourced'. None of the papers would lead so empathetically on £130,000 is it was someone on Twitter.
