AS Roma president James Pallotta insists Kevin Strootman is not for sale.
The midfielder has been linked with Manchester United.
"There has been non stop reporting in UK newspapers about Kevin Strootman and Manchester United," Roma quote Pallotta as saying through their official Twitter account.
"Kevin Strootman is not for sale and has never ever been discussed in that vein at Roma. They are wasting paper.
"We consider Kevin an integral highly valued partner in our long term plans."
