The Dutch midfielder is keen to repay the club's faith, having been plagued by injuries in recent years
Kevin Strootman said he decided a "long time ago" that he would sign a new deal with Roma after extending his contract in the Italian capital.
Roma received a boost on Monday when Strootman signed a new five-year contract to tie him to the Serie A runners-up until 2022.
There was speculation Strootman could leave the Stadio Olimpico but the 27-year-old Dutch midfielder is keen to repay the faith, having been plagued by injuries.
"I'm happy here and I really like the city, the team, the football and Italy overall," Strootman told Roma's website.
