Report: Marcos Rojo to remain at Manchester United

A report claims that Marcos Rojo wants to stay at Manchester United and fight for a starting spot in defence, despite being told to find a new club by Jose Mourinho.

Out-of-favour Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo has no interest in leaving the club this summer, according to a report.

The Argentina international is among those thought to have been told to find a new team by manager Jose Mourinho, as he attempts to re-shape the Red Devils' backline.

Sky Sports News reports that Rojo, who has already turned down one approach from an unnamed Chinese Super League side, will instead stay at Old Trafford and fight for a starting place.

Eric Bailly has been added to United's defensive ranks already this window, while Luke Shaw has also returned to fitness following a lengthy injury layoff.

Rojo, a £16m signing from Sporting Lisbon in 2014, also faces competition from Phil Jones, Chris Smalling and Daley Blind, while another new face could be brought in before the end of the month.
