AS Roma midfielder Kevin Strootman remains Manchester United's priority for the winter market.
The Daily Mail says United will give manager Louis van Gaal more funds in January as they try to challenge to get back into the top four after last season's disappointing seventh-place finish under David Moyes.
Roma midfielder Strootman is a £25m target and a top central defender is also needed, although Borussia Dortmund's Mats Hummels remains off limits unless the German club are knocked out of European competition early.
