Robin van Persie has given a rare insight into his final days at Arsenal and the fury he felt after the club attempted to persuade him to stay by showing off their healthy finances.
The Dutchman turned into a global superstar during his time with the Gunners, but grew increasingly tired of the club being unable to compete at the highest level.
Speaking this week to Dutch presenter Kaj Gorgels on his official YouTube channel, Van Persie admitted one of the final straws during his time in north London was the club explicitly showing him their preference for off-field financial success.
