Juan Sebastián Verón, president of Estudiantes, confirmed that he spoke with Marcos Rojo, who expressed a desire to return to Estudiantes. Rojo reportedly contacted Verón to discuss his return, but Verón emphasized that Rojo needs to clarify issues with the fans, who are upset due to Rojo's previous declaration of being a Boca fan.

Marcos Rojo will not continue at Boca Juniors. Juan Sebastián Verón, president of Estudiantes de La Plata, has given the green light for Rojo's return to the club where he debuted in 2008 and won the Copa Libertadores. Negotiations are underway with Boca Juniors for Rojo's transfer back to Estudiantes. Rojo's name has also been linked with Gimnasia, but a return to Estudiantes seems more likely.
Marcos Rojo is in talks to return to Estudiantes de La Plata after having a discussion with the club's president, Juan Sebastián Verón. Verón, who used to play alongside Rojo, has given his approval for the transfer but has stipulated two conditions: Rojo must arrange a cost-effective exit from Boca Juniors, and he must exhibit exemplary behavior in light of past controversies. Rojo's agents have so far been unable to reach Estudiantes' technical team; however, after coming to an understanding with Verón, Estudiantes' manager Agustín Alayes is set to initiate discussions with Boca's Football Council to finalize Rojo's departure. Rojo is also in direct negotiations with Boca's management to speed up the process.
Marcos Rojo is seeking to depart from Boca Juniors and has reportedly sent a direct message to Sebastián Verón, the president of Estudiantes de La Plata, to express his wish to return to the club. Rojo is not part of the plans of Boca's coach Miguel Ángel Russo and has experienced a complicated relationship with Boca's president Juan Román Riquelme. Estudiantes is currently searching for a left-footed central defender, a role that Rojo could fill. However, challenges exist due to Rojo's previous acceptance of Boca's offer, which led to feelings of betrayal among many at Estudiantes. The club would also need to pay compensation to Boca, but the primary issue remains Rojo's relationship with Estudiantes' fans and management. While Verón's approval could push negotiations forward, he has yet to respond to Rojo's message.
Marcos Rojo's future at Boca Juniors remains uncertain. Coach Miguel Ángel Russo chose not to use him in the Club World Cup debut, opting for Ayrton Costa in his position instead. With only six months remaining on his contract, there is a possibility that Rojo may leave the club. Despite his past connection and personal relationship with club director Juan Sebastián Verón, the fans of Estudiantes de La Plata have reportedly declared him 'persona non grata' and are opposed to his return. Rojo's return to Estudiantes appears unlikely, given the past tensions that arose when he joined Boca Juniors after a loan period at Estudiantes, during which he played minimally due to injuries.
