Blackburn boss Bowyer: Palace must meet our Gestede valuation

Blackburn Rovers boss Gary Bowyer is confident he won't lose Rudy Gestede on the cheap.

Blackburn have told Crystal Palace they will not sell striker Gestede for less than £5million.

"I think the owners have a valuation and until it's met I don't think he'll be going anywhere," Bowyer said.

"We thought it might have progressed quicker than it has and that's why he wasn't involved. There have been no further developments, so he goes into the squad for Saturday.

"He's conducted himself in a brilliant way. It's not his fault people have not met the valuation put on him by our owners.

"That's out of my hands and Rudy's. All we can do is focus on the football side - and that's preparing for Swansea."
