Hughes wants Roberts to stick with Blackburn

Blackburn Rovers boss Mark Hughes insists striker Jason Roberts is staying at Ewood Park.

"His future is still very much with Blackburn Rovers. He's a Blackburn Rovers player," said the Ewood chief.

"We are not a selling club. Obviously, we look at different situations and if we feel we can improve the quality that we can bring into the club, then we look at things.

"But as Jason proved today, he's got a big talent and attributes and qualities that we need, and if you are looking to try to replace a player like Jason Roberts then it costs a lot of money."
