📸 Marcos Rojo shows off nasty Manchester derby battle scar

Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo has revealed the extent of the head injury he sustained during last Sunday’s Manchester derby.

Rojo was involved in a sickening clash of heads with Manchester City’s David Silva in the first half at Old Trafford and eventually had to be substituted at the interval.

And a photo posted on social media by the versatile Argentine reveals he’s subsequently had to have metal staples applied to a gruesome looking wound on his forehead.

The 27-year-old – who has only made four appearances so far this season due to injury – missed the mid-week victory over Bournemouth but is in line to make his return against West Bromwich Albion at the Hawthorns on Sunday.

And he’ll have one heck of a scar when he does.
