Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo's agent has come out to silence all rumors of Rojo leaving, according to Talk Sport. After rumors emerged of Rojo being targeted by Serie A side Napoli, it appears all talks have come to a halt.
"There is no need to talk about it. The player is happy at United and has no intention of leaving the club" stated Rojo's agent. If you are Manchester United, the last thing you want to hear is one of your center backs looking to skip town. Thankfully, the rumors held no weight and United fans can breath easy for now.
United manager Louis Van Gaal and Rojo were reported as not seeing eye to eye on things, yet there is no chance a January exit will take place. It is one thing to not gel with your manager; it is another to have a falling out and want to relocate. Van Gaal knows that without Rojo, the backline of United should not bother showing up for games. Yes, there are others capable of stepping in like Chris Smalling, however, losing a talented player like Rojo would greatly hurt the Red Devils.
United is holding onto Rojo for the foreseeable future and hopefully that does not backfire on Van Gaal. If there is anything the club needs to do going into January, it is adding more defenders, not selling them.
