The Argentine defender underwent a medical at Boca's training ground on Monday before being officially unveiled, bringing to an end his seven-year stay in Manchester.
United confirmed the 30-year-old's departure via an official statement on their website, which reads: "Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo has completed his transfer to Boca Juniors, for an undisclosed fee.
"The 30-year-old will return to his homeland on a permanent basis, after agreeing terms with the reigning Argentinian champions.
Rojo joined the Red Devils from Sporting CP for €20 million (£18m/$24m) back in 2014, and went on to appear in 122 games for the club across all competitions, scoring twice.
The statement concluded: "Everyone at the club would like to wish him all the best for the future."
Rojo has returned to his homeland after spending the second half of the 2019-20 campaign on Estudiantes' books - the club where he began his professional career.
