Arsenal are using Manchester United’s swoop for Robin van Persie as leverage in their chase for misfit Nani.
The Gunners have opened talks with United over a January move for the Portugal winger.
The Old Trafford club want in the region of £20million for Nani, who has fallen out of favour with manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
But Arsenal want a cheaper fee and are highlighting Van Persie’s summer move north in their attempts to secure a lower price.
The Holland striker’s £24m move to Old Trafford was largely smooth and pain-free. And the north London club are using the fact they did not turn Van Persie’s switch into a drawn-out saga as a bargaining tool in their discussions for Nani.
Sportsmail revealed Arsene Wenger’s interest in the 26-year-old winger earlier this month. Chelsea are also emerging as contenders to sign Nani.
