• Rojo began his career at Argentine local club Estudiantes de La Plata, where he won the Copa Libertadores in 2009 and played in the Club World Cup Final later that year.

• After a short spell with Spartak Moscow he joined Sporting CP in 2012, and transferred to Manchester United for £16 million two years later.

• Rojo stated that it was a 'dream' come true to play with Manchester United.

• On 3 February 2015, Rojo scored his first goal for United, heading a ball played by Robin van Persie for the second goal of a 3–0 win over Cambridge United in an FA Cup fourth round replay.

• Rojo was fined £140,000 by United for failing to join up with the rest of the squad on time for the 2015 pre-season tour of North America, and Louis Van Gaal offered Rojo to AS Monaco as part of a deal to bring Anthony Martial to Old Trafford, a deal stopped by Rojo's agent Jorge Mendes.

     "Who's our Argie in the red?
      Rojo, Rojo!
     United is a dream he said,
     Rojo, Rojo!
    Who the *feck will come attack,
    With our Argie at the back?
    Rojo, Rojo, Rojo!
