Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo has revealed he and Angel Di Maria were fined for not attending English classes.

Di Maria was a famous flop signing for United, leaving only one season after he arrived from Real Madrid for almost £60m.

And Rojo, who looks set to join Estudiantes, says he and Di Maria paid the price for not trying to learn the local language.

"The first year cost me through adaptation because I came from Portugal and had sun all day, there was more like Argentina," said the defender.

"It cost me because of the rain, the language, the sun never came out, but now it's been five years and I'm comfortable.

"We went to English classes with Angel Di Maria and we killed each other with laughter.

"Afterwards we did not go to those classes anymore and they started fining us because they were already paying."
