Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has left the door open for Marcos Rojo and Chris Smalling to make their way into his squad this season.

The two center-backs are on a list of players that Manchester United would ideally come along this summer, but the prospect of that, and especially in the case of Red, seems unlikely.

ESPN They claim that the couple, along with Sergio Romero, Phil Jones and Andreas Pereira, are for sale at Old Trafford, but stakeholders have been put off by their high salaries.

Smalling seems to be the closest thing to a way out with Roma desperate to turn their loan into a permanent change. So far, although the Serie A team has been unable to agree on a fee with Ed Woodward and Co.

For Rojo, however, the situation looks much bleaker, although the report states that the Argentine “has been told that there is a possibility of securing a spot on Solskjaer’s team.”

Solskjaer’s search for a left-handed center-back continues and the manager is “impressed” with Rojo, who has been doing double workouts every day since returning to Manchester from Argentina.

Rojo spent the second half of last season where he began his career at Estudiantes.

He returned to Argentina in the winter window with a loan agreement until the end of June. But the 30-year-old did not show up as much as he would have liked to the La Plata club.

According to Tuttomercatoweb, Lazio has identified Rojo as a player who can solve their problems on defense. However, United is still waiting for an offer for the defender, who signed for United in 2014 from Sporting.

It seems like a long shot that Rojo could resurrect his career at Old Trafford, but with few suitors and United’s priority ahead of the October 5 transfer deadline to sign Jadon Sancho, then he could force his way back to the league. contest.

Sancho speaks more ‘respectful’

Meanwhile, Solskjaer continues to hunt for Sancho, with Bleach report stating last week that United and Dortmund had agreed to “enter into negotiations in a more respectful way.”

United officials felt that too much information was leaking to the media and so Sancho’s speech has died down in recent weeks.

Dortmund is believed to be enduring a fee of £ 108 million, but the report states that “two of the biggest sticking points have been salary demands and agent fees.”

But from now on don’t expect so much detailed information on the deal with Dortmund agreeing to keep things at home.
