Taking advice on a new striker? Man United boss Erik ten Hag takes Robin van Persie out for a upmarket Chinese dinner in Manchester after ditching Cristiano Ronaldo

Should Erik ten Hag be looking to pick the brains of anyone when it comes to being a striker at Manchester United, he could do a lot worse than look to Robin van Persie.

United boss Ten Hag took Van Persie to an upmarket Chinese restaurant - Tattu - in the city centre on Monday night, along with their agent Kees Vos, with the pair seen braving the cold as they chatted outside following their meal.

Van Persie is spending time back at United's Carrington training ground to develop his coaching ahead a step towards management, according to the Manchester Evening News.
