Solskjaer: 'Rojo still has Man United future'

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer suggests that defender Marcos Rojo still has a future at Manchester United, despite his loan move to Estudiantes.

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has suggested that Marcos Rojo will return to Old Trafford after his loan spell with Estudiantes.

With Rojo having less than 18 months left on his contract, a temporary move to one of the biggest clubs in Argentina was perceived to be the end of his United career.

However, Solskjaer has hinted that the versatile defender is motivated to see out the remaining time on his deal in the North-West.

Speaking to reporters, Solskjaer said: "He wants to come back a fitter and better player, hopefully having played well for Estudiantes and helped Seba (chairman Juan Sebastian Veron) and gone to the Copa America. It was something we had to do.

"Marcos is a lovely lad. He's got the fire in his belly. He's a winner and he wasn't getting enough football. It's important for him to start playing. He was in the stand away end against Man City and Liverpool. He is such a passionate guy and wants to support this team."

The 29-year-old has left United having made just seven starts and two substitute outings in all competitions this season.
