According to goal.com, the Netherlands international has refused to travel with the Gunners to Malaysia and China, to compete at compete at the tour of Asia, as part of their pre-season campaign. The tour begins on Saturday afternoon, and the club is expected to fly to Kuala Lumpur that fly that day, to play the first leg of the competition. As for Arsenal boss, Arsene Wenger, he has reluctantly accepted the Dutchman’s attitude, according to the same reports, which means that Van Persie will stay at London Colney to train with the team’s academy and reserve players.
