JORDON RHODES

BLACKBURN FOOTBALL CLUB

23rd August 2014.

We have recently received two official bids for the services of Jordan Rhodes from Hull City FC, both have been respectfully and categorically rejected.
The owners of Blackburn Rovers wish to reassure fans that their intention is not to sell Jordan Rhodes as they, along with the manager and board of directors, feel that he is integral to our bid to gain promotion back to the Premier League.

Despite the necessity to comply with and address the pending restrictions of FFP regulations, the owners feel it would be a detrimental step to lose our top goalscorer and such an icon of this football club.

We made our intentions clear this summer when we rewarded Jordan with a new and improved contract and we stand by that.

We want to give Gary Bowyer and the team the best possible opportunity to get back to the top flight and Jordan has been and remains a significant part of that aim.

It is also important to acknowledge that Jordan has acted, unsurprisingly, in a totally professional manner during this period of speculation.

Can't see him staying. Things like this normally only ever end one way, and that's the player moves on.

He deserves Premier League football, great player.
