AS Roma coach Rudi Garcia is happy hearing management are determined not to lose Kevin Strootman.
Garcia is anxiously waiting for the Holland midfielder to overcome long-term injury - with his comeback slated for October.
Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal is pushing to sign Strootman in January, though Roma president James Pallotta has declared this week the midfielder is not for sale.
Garcia remarked yesterday: "I agree with the president.
"I'm the first one that says we have to keep the best with us."
