Manchester United youngster Alejandro Garnacho described former striker Robin van Persie as a 'legend' after the latter visited Carrington to do some work towards securing his coaching badges.
As reported by the Manchester Evening News on Tuesday, the Dutchman has been invited back to Carrington to aid his ambition of going on to enjoy a prosperous career in football management. Van Persie, who spent three years at Old Trafford, is not being lined up to join United's coaching staff, but Erik ten Hag has invited him to do some work at the Reds' training base as a friend of the club.
Van Persie, who is currently at Feyenoord as their assistant coach, is keen to step into the cut-throat business of football management, meaning his help from United, Ten Hag and his pool of coaching staff should serve him well. While at the training ground, he participated in a finishing session with some of United's attackers.
