The Argentinian centre-half is on the fringes at Old Trafford.
And he could be available in January.
Rojo, 30, was the subject of inquiries from several clubs during the last transfer window.
But United kept him and put him in their squad for the Champions League.
The fiery defender returned from a disappointing loan back home with Estudiantes in Argentina last term.
However, he could be sent out again to the Premier League to help him and United.
Rojo is a free agent at the end of the season and needs a long-term move.
Half a season with the Blades may appeal.
Wilder lost influential defender Jack O’Connell to a knee injury and still has a loan space.
And he is hopeful he can agree a deal with United.
