Not Played Throughout The Season, Rojo Was Sold By MU To Boca Juniors
JAKARTA - Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo has completed his permanent move to Boca Juniors. This was revealed by the two related clubs as reported by Antara from the ESPN page.
United issued a statement on Tuesday saying they had received an undisclosed fee even though Boca insisted Rojo's contract at Old Trafford was over before an agreement was reached with the Argentine.
Rojo, who has played for Argentina 61 times, has played for United in 122 games following a £ 16.5 million move from Sporting Club in 2014. However, he has not played at all this season.
He only made 17 appearances after signing a new contract in March 2018 and has not played for United since their 3-1 win against Brighton & Hove Albion in November 2019.
His contract will expire this summer after United refused to activate the option to extend him for one more season.
Rojo played with Estudiantes in January 2020 on loan but only played once before the COVID-19 pandemic stopped soccer competitions around the world.
