The Manchester United striker will join his
former team-mate Nani at the Turkish club, with chairman Aziz Yildirim claiming
a deal to sign the Dutchman has been completed
Fenerbahce announced on Thursday that they had opened talks with United over the potential signing of the Dutchman, and it appears that they have now finalised a deal for Van Persie.
"We worked very hard, until midnight. We received five faxes, sent six faxes and finally it was finished," Yildirim told Hurriyet.
"The Van Persie transfer is done and one more star has joined the Fenerbahce constellation.”
Goal understands that Van Persie had been in talks with United over a compensation package that would see the striker leave the club, with the former Arsenal forward keen to have the final year of his contract paid up.
When the transfer is officially announced, the 31-year-old will link up with his former United team-mate Nani, who joined the club earlier this week.
