Feyenoord snap up free agent Robin van Persie, who made 78 appearances for the club during his first stint with the Dutch giants at the start of his career.

Former Arsenal and Manchester United striker Robin van Persie has rejoined boyhood side Feyenoord on a free transfer.

The 34-year-old will officially put pen to paper on Monday, 14 years after leaving the club to start a decade-long spell in English football.

Van Persie has spent time with Turkish giants Fenerbahce since leaving Old Trafford in 2015, but he has now been snapped up by Feyenoord following the expiry of his contract.

A 102-cap Netherlands international, Van Persie represented the Rotterdam outfit 78 times and lifted the UEFA Cup in 2001-02.

Dutch champions Feyenoord are managed by the prolific striker's former international teammate Giovanni van Bronckhorst.
