Italian side AS Roma are set to beat Manchester United in the race to sign PSV midfielder Kevin Strootman.
The hard-working Dutch international midfielder has been linked with Manchester United to become the long-term replacement for Michael Carrick, but according to the Daily Express, United are set to be bested by the Italian capital club.
Manchester United are closing in on Spain’s Thiago Alcantara and maybe that’s the reason why David Moyes cooled off his interest for Strootman, who was a favourite to become Moyes’ first signing at United; however, Roma new boss Rudi Garcia stepped up his bid and is expected to land the Dutchman.
