Roma, Strootman: "Happy about my renewal, the club knows what to do"

After Spalletti, Di Francesco will also give Strootman the keys of his midfield: after his renewal, the Dutch player has spoken to Roma TV: "I'm happy about last season's ending. Glad to renew too. We've reached the second position and it's important, we'll play the Champions League in September. I'm pleased to start again with the team, we've had a long holiday and are now ready. Our board knows how to build a squad, they've shown so in the last years and will too this season. I'm convinced we can achieve big things this year. Di Francesco? There's always something that changes when a new coach arrives. I've talked a bit with him and the other players: we'll have to go forward, work hard to be ready. Leader? I always want to help youngsters but Daniele De Rossi is our leader. I want to do my job, help the team and win somethings".
