Sporting Lisbon defender Marcos Rojo has reportedly handed in a transfer request.
Various reports in Portugal suggest the Argentine left-back is determined to depart Estadio Jose Alvalade after it became apparent that Manchester United made a £16million play for him.
25-year old Rojo impressed for La Biancocelesti at the FIFA World Cup which prompted interest from a number of top clubs around Europe.
News that the former Estudiantes la Plata and Spartak Moscow man is seeking a Sporting exit suggests that he could be on his way to Old Trafford before the summer transfer window slams shut at the end of August.
