Report: Manchester United want Kevin Strootman

Manchester United are reportedly interested in signing Roma midfielder Kevin Strootman.

Red Devils boss Jose Mourinho is believed to be intent on signing at least one new central midfielder this summer as Michael Carrick enters the latter stages of his contract at Old Trafford.

Strootman was linked with the 20-time English champions during Louis van Gaal's time at the club, and according to Calciomercato.com, Mourinho is also an admirer of the experienced Netherlands international.

Strootman, who has also previously been linked with Everton, will see his Roma contract expire in June 2018.

This season, the Dutchman has scored three times in 25 Serie A appearances, while he has also netted once in five Europa League matches for his Italian club during the 2016-17 campaign.
