Valencia chief in England for Man Utd defender talks

Valencia are moving for Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo.

The Mirror says the Spanish club's sporting director Jesus Garcia Pitarch travelled to England for talks with Rojo's representatives.

They are willing to pay £14m for the Argentina international.

But Old Trafford chiefs are unlikely to sanction the sale following Rojo's return to form under Jose Mourinho.
