In an interview from their preseason camp in Austria, new Fenerbahce signing Dirk Kuyt said Arsenal striker Robin van Persie would like to play for Fenerbahce one day. "Robin van Persie told me his thoughts; he knows how big the support is for Fenerbahce. He said he would like to play for Fenerbahce one day. We know that's not possible right now, but Robin said it's a feeling that he has inside," Kuyt stated.
