3 realistic destinations for Marcos Rojo should he leave Manchester United | Premier League 2019-20  

Marcos Rojo joined Manchester United in the summer of 2014 from Sporting CP on the backdrop of a brilliant set of performances at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil where he played a crucial role in La Albiceleste's run to the finals of the coveted competition. The life of Marcos Rojo at Manchester United has never been an easy path.

He has been criticised often enough for his inconsistencies and errors in the heart of the Manchester United defence. He also lacks pace which makes him vulnerable against fast-paced attacks, and it looks like his time at Manchester United is coming to an end. The Argentina international has made just 4 appearances in the Premier League this season indicating that Ole Gunnar Solksjaer does not trust him to be the man guarding the defence anymore. He has been linked with a move away from Old Trafford this winter.

Here are 3 clubs that can sign Marcos Rojo this winter.

#3. Valencia

Alberto Celades has to fix problems in the backline at Valencia

Valencia is currently 7th in the La Liga, although 4 points adrift of 4th placed Sevilla with a game in hand. They have an on and off-season so far during which they sacked Marcelino and appointed Alberto Celades as his replacement in the dugout. Even under their new manager, defensive problems have persisted and they've been giving away unnecessary goals at regular intervals.

Marcos Rojo's inclusion in the team would give them much needed stability and experience in the backline. Being an Argentine, he will not be having the language barrier and he can settle down quickly in Spain. Both Ezequiel Garay and Eliaquim Mangala have been pretty much disastrous this season and he will be an upgrade to both of them in the current squad, something that Valencia can benefit from with immediate effect. He has a contract at Old Trafford till June 30, 2021, but given the length of his contract remaining and currently being out of favour, he will not cost Valencia a fortune.

#2. AC Milan

Mattia Caldara has joined Atalanta which is a blow for AC Milan

The Italian Serie A has a history of being kind to Argentine players. Even in the past century, there have been many Argentines who travelled to Italy and made their name out there. With the exit of Mattia Caldara to Atalanta, there's a dearth of central defenders in the club. Milan is struggling a lot in recent years even after large amounts of financial investments in the transfer market.

Marcos Rojo is the solution that the Rossoneri currently need in their central defence. Though they've signed Simon Kjær from Sevilla, Rojo will be an upgrade from the Danish international. The club already has his compatriots in the form of Matteo Musacchio and Lucas Biglia and that will surely help in his integration at the club which is desperately trying to get its glory days back. Even though Milan are currently having financial constraints due to FFP, they can make Manchester United agree to a loan with an option to buy kind of deal to sign the 29-year-old at the club till the end of the season.

#1. Fenerbahçe SK

Fenerbahçe could do with the experience of Marcos Rojo

The Turkish giants are interested in signing Marcos Rojo from Manchester United this winter. The 29-year-old can immediately boost up their defence should he land at the club this month. His experience and qualities can make him an undisputed starter which is one of the things Rojo is looking for currently. He can become the leader of the backline in Turkey and get regular minutes on the field.

Fenerbahçe is currently in the 3rd place in the Turkish Super Lig, 3 points off league leaders Sivasspor and the signing of Rojo will bolster their defence which will help in challenging for the league title with more ease. Given the fact that Fenerbahçe is not amongst the most stable financial clubs, Rojo's signing will not cost them much and they might get a better return on investment in the long run with his signature. The yellow canaries will have to act quickly though as their arch-rivals Galatasaray who are in a worse situation are also interested in signing the Argentine international.
