MK Dons boss Paul Ince is full of praise for Blackburn Rovers as he angles for talks.

"Blackburn are a great club, with great traditions," he told Sky Sports News. "They are a family club and Mark Hughes did a fantastic job there, so we will see."

As a relative newcomer to the management game, the 40-year-old has an impeccable record so far.

"It is nice when you are being talked about by Premier League clubs," he said. "It shows I have done an okay job in my two years as a manager, which I am pleased about."

However, Ince is at pains to stress his immediate priority is events at MK Dons, who have already rebuffed interest from Leicester about their manager.

"At this moment in time I am preparing for a new season with Milton Keynes," he added.

"Blackburn would have to speak to my chairman first.

"If that happens, we will go from there. I can't make any decisions until I have received a call from my chairman saying Blackburn have asked to speak to me."
