Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo joins Old Trafford injury list

Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal confirms that defender Marcos Rojo suffered an injury in training prior to their Premier League home clash with Liverpool.

Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo has found himself back on the sidelines after picking up an injury prior to the Premier League clash against Liverpool on Sunday.

The 24-year-old, who has only recently returned from a shoulder problem, suffered another setback in training this week.

Phil Jones has replaced him in the team for the game at Old Trafford, with manager Louis van Gaal confirming that the Argentine had joined a lengthening injury list.

Speaking before the match, Van Gaal told BBC Sport: "I had to change at the last moment because Marcos was injured in training."

Fellow defenders Chris Smalling, Luke Shaw and Rafael da Silva are already missing for United.
