All good things must or probably would come to an end at some point and that’s the sad reality that has beamed on Manchester United striker Robin Van Persie. The Netherlands striker, during the week revealed to a UK-based paper how much he admires Juventus and how former teammate Patrice Evra has been whispering good tidings into his ears.

Van Persie has always seemed to me a smart man and he knows when to call it quit. Remember how he ditched Arsenal three summers ago to win the Premier League title the following season with Manchester United? He saw it coming and he jumped ship.
Fast forward three years later and the reality on ground is that van Persie won’t be first choice next season – not after his dismal 24 months at Old Trafford. And the striker has seen the writing on the wall. He prefers to leave on his own terms and would not want to be pushed out or accept a super-sub role like departing teammate, Falcao.

Van Persie’s comments during the week stopped short of saying “come and get me Juventus”. It was as an open invite from a footballer I’ve seen all my life and no doubt he has seen how oldies like Evra, Tevez and Pirlo have thrived in the Turin city.
Will RVP ignite his career in Italy? Absolutely. I believe it’ll be a nice move for him as his game (at his age) would probably be suited to the slower pace known with the Serie A.

Do you think RVP can succeed in Juventus?
