The Argentine defender is excited to join "one of
the best clubs in the world at the moment" and
welcomes the arrivals of marquee signings Angel
Di Maria and Radamel Falcao
New Manchester United signing Marcos Rojo
believes that Louis van Gaal has assembled a
squad capable of restoring the club to their
former glory.
The Argentina international signed for United fro
Sporting Lisbon in August in a deal worth €20
million but has not yet featured for his new club
due to delays in obtaining a visa.
However, he has now been granted the all-clear
to play and is relishing the chance to line up
alongside fellow new arrivals such as Radamel
Falcao and Angel Di Maria.
"It is a huge step forward in my career and my
life and I am very happy to play for one of the
best clubs in the world at the moment," Rojo told
Perform.
"There are some great players [here]. We
obviously need to give time so the new manager
can build his team but, with the great names we
have in our squad and the intelligence of the
manager, I am sure many achievements will com
along."
Di Maria arrived from Real Madrid for a British
record fee of €75m, making his debut at Burnley
before the international break, and Rojo is familia
with the winger from their time with the Argentin
national team.
"He's got a lot of quality," the defender
proclaimed. "He is very sharp and very fast so h
can help a lot attacking in the second line."
United - without a win from their opening three
Premier League fixtures - recruited Monaco
forward Falcao on loan on transfer deadline day.
"There are some good strikers in the squad," Roj
enthused, "but Falcao is always in the penalty
box; he is very sharp and capable to make the
most of any chance.
"I will try to find my place as soon as possible
and help in every way I can so we get important
trophies."
