Robin van Persie at Manchester United in 2014-15
Robin van Persie, born 6 August 1983 in Rotterdam, joined Manchester United from Arsenal in August 2012 and immediately delivered one of the most celebrated debut seasons in Premier League history. He scored 26 league goals in his first campaign, including a hat-trick against Southampton on 23 February 2013 that included a stunning left-foot volley widely regarded as one of the greatest goals ever scored at Old Trafford. He was the decisive factor in United's 2012-13 Premier League title, their twentieth and Sir Alex Ferguson's last. The 2014-15 season was his third at the club and his final full campaign in the iconic red home shirt, playing under Louis van Gaal. It was a more difficult season individually, and he left United at the end of it, making the red home shirt from this campaign the last of its kind from his time at Old Trafford. He signed these shirts on 23 December 2014, mid-season, at a point when his chapter at the club was drawing to a close. For collectors who build around the complete arc of a player's time at a club, the 2014-15 home shirt is the closing piece of the Van Persie Manchester United story.
