Feyenoord’s price hike angers Wenger

ARSENE WENGER has voiced his displeasure at Feyenoord’s apparent attempt to force up the price for striker Robin van Persie by publicly revealing Arsenal’s bid.

Wenger would not confirm yesterday whether he had made a move for Persie, even though Feyenoord revealed they had turned a bid down earlier this week and awaiting a revised offer.

The Arsenal boss seemingly fears the Dutch club are trying to hike up the 19-year-old striker’s price by revealing the Gunners’ interest so openly.
