Moving on
Marcos Rojo’s time with Manchester United has come to an end.
The former United defender is joining Boca Juniors in his home country of Argentina for an undisclosed fee.

Man United released a statement regarding the transfer.
“Marcos will return to his homeland on a permanent basis, after agreeing terms with the reigning Argentinian champions,”
“Everyone at the club would like to wish him all the best for the future.”
Rojo will join former United striker Carlo Tevez at Boca Juniors.
