Man Utd defender Rojo: I've had offers to leave

Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo admits he had offers to leave this summer.

Rojo fell out with United manager Louis van Gaal at the beginning of preseason after missing their US tour over passport trouble.

The Argentina defender was linked with Valencia and AS Monaco before today's deadline day.

"I have received offers, but my plan is to stay at United and fight for my place, because I'm at a great club," said Rojo.

"I will try to play as much as possible. I have spoken with Van Gaal and he said he was disappointed about what happened, but that he is counting on me."
