Paris Saint-Germain rule out bid for Robin van Persie

Paris Saint-Germain have said that they will not be bidding for unsettled Arsenal striker Robin van Persie.

Dutch forward Van Persie revealed in a statement last week that he would not be signing a new contract with the Gunners, alerting a host of elite European clubs.

PSG are on that list, but manager Carlo Ancelotti has insisted that Van Persie is not one of his summer targets.

"Van Persie is not a target of ours, but I think he is for other clubs," he told a press conference.

Van Persie has less than 12 months left on his contract at Arsenal and speculation over his future is expected to dominate the headlines this summer.
