Defender Arrives At Carrington With Agent To Complete Deadline Day Move

Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo is closing in on a move to Everton - having arrived at

Carrington this morning flanked by his agent.

The Argentine defender is well down the pecking order at Old Trafford, with Harry Maguire's arrival for £80m adding further depth to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's defensive ranks.

A move away from the club has been touted for a number of months, with fellow Premier League side Everton among a number of teams previously credited with an interest in signing Rojo.

A permanent £25m deal now looks to be on the cards, even though The Times claim the Toffees want to take Rojo to Goodison Park on loan, rather than on a permanent basis.
