Indian entrepreneur Suarin Shah has hinted at his plans for Blackburn Rovers.

Shah, 35, yesterday confirmed to the Lancashire Telegraph his interest was serious and, while unwilling to disclose many details, insisted he meant business.

He said: "Yes, I can confirm I am interested.

"It is an exciting prospect but I can't say too much at the moment.

"We do not enter things to lose, we enter things to win. That is all I can say.

"We are serious. We are in negotiations and the interest is natural because of the amount of Indians and Pakistani people in Lancashire."
