However United are considering a move for Tottenham’s Toby Alderweireld this summer as Jose Mourinho looks to freshen up his defence.

And he already has plenty of options with Phil Jones, Eric Bailly, Chris Smalling and Victor Lindelof all competing for places.

That has left Rojo, 27, wondering whether he will get game time and left him weighing up his options.

He can also fill in at left-back but Ashley Young and Luke Shaw look likely to share responsibilities there next season.

He looked set to leave when Mourinho took over, but he became a mainstay and was arguably United’s best defender in 2016-17, before his season was cut short with a knee injury.

Last term, his playing drastically reduced as he made just 13 appearances in all competitions.
