Marcos Rojo and Marouane Fellaini in today’s transfer news as United look to reinforce their squad in January
Manchester United duo Marcos Rojo and Marouane Fellaini are set to leave Old Trafford having failed to get regular action under interim manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Both players were important figures in Mourinho’s title-winning season but none of them could retain their place in the team since the Norwegian was hired by the Red Devils hierarchy in December.

Manchester Evening News report that the Argentine center-back will be made to leave Old Trafford so that Solskjaer would invest on koulibaly’s signature.
In the same report, Belgian midfielder Marouane Fellaini is likely to join the list of players wanted out of the Theater of Dreams this month.
The former Everton man signed a one-year contract extension in the summer but he might be forced to terminate the deal as he isn’t getting quality game-time under the ever-smiling manager.
AC Milan, Porto and Chinese side Guangzhou Evergrande are all said to be tracking his situation at Old Trafford and they are set to make move for his signature.
Fellaini’s spell at Old Trafford hasn’t been as great as the fans expected, though, he played an outstanding role in the club’s run to two trophies in a 2016-17 season.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has openly expressed interest in Dalian Yifang’s midfielder Yannick Carrasco, while, is obvious the manager want to see Napoli and Senegalese defender Kalidou koulibaly in his defensive setup before the end of the month.
