Newcastle United join race for Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo?

Newcastle United reportedly join the race to sign Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo, who will be allowed to leave Old Trafford in January.

Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo has reportedly emerged as a potential transfer target for Newcastle United.

The 30-year-old is one of a number of players at Old Trafford who have been frozen out by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer during the first half of the campaign.

Having not made a single appearance in any competition, Rojo is now being targeted by a number of clubs from the Premier League and abroad.

Although Sheffield United have been suggested as a possible destination, The Athletic claims that Newcastle are also monitoring the situation.

The report claims that Steve Bruce is keen for a centre-back who can also cover at left-back, criteria which makes the Argentina international a perfect addition for the Magpies.

Providing that they do not trigger a 12-month option in his contract, United are expected to accept a cut-price fee for the player's signature.
