Blackburn eyeing Bosnian winger Ibricic

Blackburn Rovers are lining up a move for Bosnian winger Senijad Ibricic.

The 24-year old is currently tied up with Croatian outfit Hajduk Split but it is believed that Rovers boss Sam Allardyce may make a move for him in the January transfer window.

Allardyce will monitor Ibricic when Bosnia take on Portugal in their World Cup qualifying play-offs and if he performs well, it may sway the Rovers manager to move quickly for him.

It is likely that other managers will be watching the speedy winger’s progress but a move to the Premier League is in Ibricic’s sights meaning the Rovers may have first crack at him.
