Sky Sports understands that Juventus are heading the chase to land Robin van Persie, should the Dutchman leave Arsenal this summer.
The Gunners captain declared earlier this week that he would not be renewing his contract with the club - which has just 12 months left to run.
Since his announcement a host of clubs have been linked, but Sky Sports understands that just three clubs are currently challenging for his signature - Juventus,
Manchester City and Manchester United.
Manchester City and Manchester United.
All three have been in the reckoning all summer and that has not changed.
Both City and United are set to offer him the chance to remain in England, should he leave the Emirates, but Juve are pushing hard with Italian sources claiming their offer would make him one of the highest players in Europe.
Van Persie has made it clear that silverware is the most important thing to him at this point - although all three clubs would be well in contention next season to challenge for every honour.

The player himself is currently on holiday and is due to return to England next week, when more talks with Arsenal are likely.
