Manchester United target Radja Nainggolan is staying with Roma, according to the Italian club's new sporting director Ramon Rodriguez Verdejo, better known as Monchi.

Nainggolan has been heavily linked with United as well as various other clubs, including Chelsea and Inter Milan, but the chances of the 29-year-old Belgium international leaving Roma this summer now look to be over.

Monchi, who swapped Sevilla for Roma this summer after 17 years as sporting director at Los Rojiblancos, was quizzed on whether Nainggolan would remain with the Giallorossi at a press conference to present new signing Maxime Gonalons on Saturday.
