Blackburn Rovers were interested in signing Ruud Van Nistelrooy last summer and we’re understood to be in the pack again looking at him in January.

Sam Allardyce admitted that the Dutch International was a player that he’d targeted but also admitted that Van Nistelrooy’s wage demands would be beyond Rovers, however, this hasn’t stopped the newspapers (the Sun) from saying that the striker could be Ewood Park bound in January with Rovers understood to be the new frontrunners.

The former Manchester United striker is expected to return to the Premier League in January and is also understood to have attracted attention from Arsenal and Liverpool with Birmingham City, Fulham and Sunderland also believed to be rivalling Rovers for Van Nistelrooy??

Personally I think that Van Nistelrooy would be a superb signing for Rovers and his quality would rub off on the likes of Nikola Kalinic and Franco Di Santo (if we keep him) to make them better players, however, I still see the costs involved as being the stumbling block and can’t see how this would be any different from last summer, which means the Dutchman is still out of reach!!
