Wolves were linked with the Red Devils defender in January and could now move for him given his reported availability.
According to The Telegraph, Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo could be on his way out of Old Trafford this January.
The report states that the Red Devils want to raise funds in order to bolster their backline and the Argentina international is thought to be the most expendable of their current crop.
Wolverhampton Wanderers were linked with Rojo in the summer, The Mirror suggesting that they were closing in on a move for the two-time World Cup participant, but nothing materialised.
Given the latest reports surrounding Rojo’s availability, if Nuno Espirito Santo was still interested in bringing the Argentine to Molineux, now would be the perfect time.
Two things that may persuade him not to move for Rojo could be his injury record and the fact that the Wolves defence has largely performed admirably this season, potentially making other backline additions redundant.
However, injuries and suspensions are always lurking round the corner, as shown by Willy Boly’s red card against Manchester City, plus a left-footed defensive player could always come in handy, especially one with experience at the highest level.
Valued by Transfermarkt at 15million Euro (around £13million), the 28-year-old isn’t too expensive, but given the pros and cons about him, there would be much for Nuno to ponder were he to reignite his interest in the player.
