Manchester United's Marcos Rojo has risked incurring the wrath of manager Louis van Gaal after being pictured smoking outside a nightclub in his native Argentina.

The defender, who is currently away on international duty, has missed a large part of this season because of a shoulder injury.

Uploaded to the Farandul Show's YouTube channel, Rojo can be seen taking a puff of the cigarette while laughing and joking with a group of party-goers outside the club.

The married 26-year-old can also be seen appearing to bite the dress of a blonde woman standing with him outside the club.

It has been reported that a major summer clear-out will occur at United this summer, with Rojo failing to impress since his £16m move in the summer of 2014, he is on that list.

United take on Everton at Old Trafford on Sunday as they aim to keep up their challenge for a Champions League place. The side are currently one point behind rivals Manchester City.
