Dutch sources suggest Manchester United are in “advanced talks” for Roma midfielder Kevin Strootman at a cost of €40m.

According to soccernews.nl, Strootman’s representatives are in negotiations with director Ed Woodward.

It’s claimed the €40m price-tag is of no particular concern to Jose Mourinho and the club that spent over €105m on Paul Pogba.

Strootman had already been very close to Manchester United when he left PSV Eindhoven in 2013, but opted for Roma instead.

Strootman had already been very close to Manchester United when he left PSV Eindhoven in 2013, but opted for Roma instead.

His career was halted by a serious knee injury that kept him on the sidelines for the best part of two years.

He has now fully recovered and this season the 27-year-old has contributed four goals and four assists in 35 competitive appearances.
