Arsenal skipper Robin Van Persie is set to snub Italian giants Juventus after the Bianconeri revealed that they were interested in securing his services this summer. Juventus, winners of Serie A in 2011/12, have made no secret of their admiration for the Dutch star but Van Persie is reportedly not too keen on a move to Italy.

The prolific Dutch centre forward doesn’t view Juventus as a major step up from Arsenal and the fact that his family are well settled in London is also a factor. Van Persie will reportedly quit Arsenal only if a major European superpower ( read Real Madrid or Barcelona) come calling.

Van Persie has a year left on his contract at Arsenal but officials are confident of getting him to pen a new deal soon.
