Hoffenheim dampen Blackburn hopes of acquiring Ibisevic

German Bundesliga club Hoffenheim have confirmed that Blackburn Rovers are indeed interested in Vedad Ibisevic.

The 27-year old Bosnian striker is reportedly in talks with the Ewood Park club but Hoffenheim general manager Ernst Tanner says that they are only a 50% chance of landing their man.

"Blackburn Rovers are keen on Vedad Ibisevic, the chances to see him move are fifty-fifty," he said.

"We have still to agree a transfer fee, but anyway they have been asking us on the allowance to pick up contract negotiations with the player."
