After dislocating his shoulder against Manchester City, Van Gaal has revealed that the defender will fortunately not require surgery thus reducing the amount of time he’ll be unavailable for matches.
The 24 year old is expected to need six weeks recovery time rather than the three months that is needed after an operation.
United have suffered numerous injuries already this season so the news that Rojo, who has impressed during his first season for the club, will be back sooner than predicted should provide a boost.
