Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo has reaffirmed hopes of playing for Estudiantes before he retires.

The Argentine defender has struggled to establish himself in Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's Manchester United first-team plans and admits he is keen on one day returning to Estudiantes.

Rojo has long been linked with a return to his native land, and speaking with ESPN in Argentina, the defender admitted he still has desire to return to his first professional club.

“I would like to play at Estudiantes again," he said.

The 29-year-old started his career at the South American side where he made 53 appearances before signing for Russian side Spartak Moscow in 2011.
