​Leeds, Brighton & Southampton clamour for Blackburn striker Diaz

Blackburn Rovers striker Brereton Diaz has been extended by the club for another year.

Diaz scored 22 goals in 37 games in the Championship this past season.

Blackburn had the option to extend his contract by another year, and chose to take up that option.

However, TEAMtalk claims the club are still willing to sell Diaz to a Premier League club for a significant fee this summer.

The likes of Southampton, Leeds United, Brighton, Wolves, and recently promoted Nottingham Forest all want to sign Diaz.

The 23-year-old is likely to be the subject of a significant bidding war this summer.
