Rovers chase Cox

Blackburn have made an offer for West Brom striker Simon Cox, according to reports.

Baggies boss Steve Clarke admitted he has received a bid for the Republic of Ireland international but did not reveal the name of the interested party. The club is believed to be Blackburn though, who are seeking to bolster their attacking options ahead of the new season. "A bid has been put in for Simon and you know what it's like when something like (this) happens," Clarke told West Brom's official website. "Things might resolve themselves over the weekend. If they don't, Simon will be back working with us. "In fact, I know he's due in tomorrow for training with the group." Cox, 25, moved to the Hawthorns from Swindon for £1.5million in 2009 and has scored 10 goals in 65 appearances.
