Marcos Rojo: I'll try to leave Man Utd in January

Marcos Rojo admits he's determined to leave Manchester United.

Rojo was blocked from joining Everton in August this summer.

He told TyC Sports: “(Argentina coach Leonel) Scaloni told me that he was happy because I played during pre-season, he saw me doing well and that's why I was called-up but I have to play. I know that to be in the Argentina national team, you have to continue to play for your club and when you play, you have to do well.

“It costs to leave a club so big but I think of my career and of wanting to be in the Argentina national team. I'll continue to fight until January and if I'm not picked, I will try to leave (Manchester United) because the World Cup qualifiers are coming as well as the Copa America and I don't want to watch that again from home."
