​Agent confirms Marcos Rojo likely to leave Man Utd amid Boca Juniors interest

The agent of Marcos Rojo has confirmed the player is likely to leave Manchester United.

Rojo is surplus to requirements in the eyes of manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

He has failed to put his injury problems behind him, even during a loan at Estudiantes.

And his agent Jonathan Barnett admitted a summer move is likely.

"I couldn't comment on what Solskjaer thinks but I think it's obvious, I think with Rojo, probably [a move] is more than likely somewhere else," the player's agent Barnett remarked to Stretty News.

For his part, Rojo wants to move to a club in Argentina.

He has a contract with United until 2021, but if the club can find a buyer, they will happily sell him to remove his wages from the annual bill.

On the prospect of his client staying in Argentina, Barnett added: "I don't know yet. I'm not sure."
