Manchester United goalkeeper Sergio Romero is back in his native Argentina and is training privately as he waits for the January window to open.
The 33-year-old came close to joining Everton in the summer, but felt let down by United when they demanded a fee for him at the last minute from their Merseyside rivals, causing the deal to collapse.
He stayed at United but found himself fourth choice behind David de Gea, Dean Henderson, and Lee Grant, and he has not played a single minute for the club this season.
Now he has been working with former coach Ale Santillán in a bid to prove his fitness to any potential suitors when the transfer window opens.
This time round United are not going to prevent him leaving the club he joined from Sampdoria in 2015. He has gone on to make 61 appearances for the Old Trafford club in all competitions.

He loves all sports but football is his abiding passion, and he still has dreams every now and then about scoring the winning goal in a Wembley Cup Final, even though his playing days are long gone. He follows most major leagues, across Europe at least, and has a favoured team in each. When he’s not watching, listening, reading or downloading podcasts about football, he spend his time worrying about his beloved Arsenal.
