Robin van Persie has been forced to rubbish claims he might never play again after suffering a knee injury on international duty.

The former Arsenal and Manchester United striker injured his knee during Holland's 3-0 defeat to France last week.

A number media outlets reported that the 34-year-old had tore his cruciate knee ligaments and faced up to a year on the sidelines.

However Van Persie has taken to social media to clarify his condition and provide an update on his fitness.
