Marcos Rojo breaks silence on Manchester United loan exit
Marcos Rojo has revealed he has rejected other club's to join his homeland club Estudiantes during the January transfer window.
Manchester United defender left Old Trafford with a loan move last month, after finding his playing time limited with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side.
Speaking on his temporary move to Estudiantes, Rojo said it is a dream come true to play for his boyhood club.
He told El Intransigente: "Many things came together. I need to play, return to my level, the family insisted, my old woman told me to come back. I had many offers to go to other clubs, but what better than being at home. I hope to be on the pitch as soon as possible. I want to go to practice and be with the boys as soon as possible. I’m very happy. It’s something I dreamed of, there was a chance and it could be done. I talked to Sebastian (Veron) quite a lot but one day my head clicked and I decided to return. It all came together."
Rojo is looking to return to the first-team squad and admits the regular playing time at the team played a key role in his transfer decision.
"I suffered a lot of injuries lately, I went to the bench a lot. And I needed to compete and what better than to do it at home. Argentine football grew a lot and this is going to be a beautiful challenge. I talked with almost everyone and they helped me at this time. I don’t know what to say to the fans, it’s incredible," he added.
