Stefan de Vrij has dealt a blow to Manchester United's hopes of signing him by ruling out a move away from Lazio.
The Netherlands international moved to the Italian capital in July 2014 despite interest from United after the World Cup.
His form for Lazio has supposedly again attracted the attention of his former international coach Louis van Gaal at Old Trafford, but De Vrij is fully focused on achieving success in Italy.
