Dunn Wants A Rovers Stay

Blackburn midfielder David Dunn is clamouring for a new deal at Rovers and hopes his injury problems don’t scupper that dream.

His ability has never been in doubt but he needs to prove over the length of his existing deal that he can stay fit.

Dunn’s current contract expires in 18 months and he is very keen to extend his stay here.

The injury-plagued star insists he is no rush to sort out his future as he is just happy to be playing but being a Rovers fan wants his long term future to be at Rovers.

Dunny, speaking to the Lancashire Evening Telegraph, said – ‘I am just happy to be involved at the minute,’

‘I just leave any contract talks with them at the moment.

‘I’d like to think that something would maybe happen in the summer, but I have still got just under 18 months left so there is no real rush.

‘I just want to play football and my first choice would be here, but players do move on and there might come a point in my career that I would have to move on again.

‘I would hope not, but there is a good chance that would happen as you get older. You can run less, so you drop down a division – and drop down another division and another division.’
