Marcos Rojo is returning to his roots at Estudiantes after being frozen out at Manchester United.
The Argentina international is heading back to his homeland on a short-term loan deal.
The 29-year-old defender has been looking for a way out of Old Trafford for some time .
It appeared at one stage in the summer window of 2019 as though a switch to Everton would be made, keeping him in the Premier League.
That deal broke down and Rojo has been forced to make peace with playing a support role with the Red Devils this season.
Having slipped down the pecking order under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, he has seen just nine appearances in the 2019-20 campaign.
The most recent of those came back in November, with a change of scenery clearly required.
Rojo has finally got his wish and is retracing his steps to where it all began for him as a promising teenager.
Estudiantes announced that agreement had been reached with United on their social media channels, saying: “You always return to the places where you were happy. Because of the sense of belonging, it's stronger.
“Your dream and that of the Pincha family come true. We meet again. Welcome and thanks for coming back, Marcos. We welcome you with our hearts.” (Goal)
