Manchester United ace Marcos Rojo looks happy as he makes his return to first-team training… but his team-mates don’t share his good mood
MARCOS ROJO looks happy as he makes his return to first-team training... but his Manchester United team-mates don't share his mood.
The Argentine defender, 27, has been out of action for four months after suffering an ACL tear.
Rojo sustained the injury during a 2-1 victory in the Europa League over Anderlecht in April.
But now, he looks ready to rejoin United's high-flying squad after Jose Mourinho's men won their first two Premier League games 4-0 - against West Ham and Swansea.
United's stars reported for a double-training session on Tuesday ahead of their next game against Leicester - despite sitting top of the table.
Rojo had looked set to leave United this summer before he excelled midway through the 2016-17 season in the absence of Eric Bailly and Chris Smalling.
So he naturally looked thrilled just to take to the Carrington turf on Tuesday morning - despite being a few weeks away from full fitness.
However, his team-mates hardly shared his enthusiasm as they looked miserable as they arrived first thing.
