Rovers star linked with move

Bolton are being linked with a swoop on rivals Blackburn with midfielder Steven Reid said to be the target.

Reid has only just returned to full fitness following 15 months on the sidelines with knee problems and is currently on loan with Queens Park Rangers in an attempt to get games under his belt.

The 28-year-old is due to fall out of contract next summer and would be able to leave on a free transfer but Rovers want to keep hold and are thought to have already offered him a deal.

However Bolton are said to be keen on the player and reports claim Rovers could be tempted to sell in January if they receive an offer in the region of £500,000.
