Marcos Rojo will not be moving to Everton after Manchester United failed to land their own defensive targets.
Everton had lined up a move for the Argentine, who is currently injured, but United were only willing to sell if they signed a defender themselves. United saw a late bid for Atletico Madrid's Diego Godin falter on Thursday.
It follows a window which saw them offer under the odds for Harry Maguire and Jerome Boateng, about whose fitness they had reservations, while they refused to meet the demands of Yerry Mina's agent and didn't even register an offer for Tottenham's Toby Alderweireld.
