BOLTON SHUN AL-HABSI BID

BOLTON SHUN AL-HABSI BID

Al-Habsi - no Rovers move.

Blackburn have failed with their bid to land Bolton goalkeeper Ali Al-Habsi.

The Oman international has less than a year left on his current contract and his agent Peter Harrison has confirmed no talks are planned over a new deal.

Blackburn had hoped to prise the highly-rated Al-Habsi away, but they are now looking at other targets.

A club statement said: "Rovers will not be pursuing an interest in Bolton goalkeeper Ali Al-Habsi.

"Rovers officials, who confirm approaching Wanderers about the Omani international, were told that he was not available and have now moved on."
