Manchester United are stepping up their pursuit of Southampton midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin.
The Daily Star says United are set to step-up their attempts to sign Schneiderlin after being told Dutch international Kevin Strootman won't be allowed to leave Roma until the summer.
The French midfielder was outstanding in the Saints win at Old Trafford, impressing Louis van Gaal and his United bosses.
Van Gaal is desperate to bolster his midfield and with a move for Strootman on hold, he could now test the Saints resolve with a £25m bid.
