Rovers Hoping To Tempt Recoba
Recoba’s contract at Inter Milan expired in the summer and having been told he has no future under Jose Mourinho, he is currently considering his options.
According to skysports.com Rovers boss Paul Ince is a huge admirer of the Uruguayan and is keen to bring him to Ewood Park.
The former Inter man’s representative, Saif Rubie, has told skysports.com that Recoba is attracting plenty of interest. Rubie admitted: “There are several clubs interested in him.”
However, he also revealed that Recoba is currently on his way to England, which will only fuel speculation that the player will shortly sign for a Premier League club.
“He's due to arrive in England on Saturday, but as a free agent he is not under pressure to sign before the transfer window closes so we will evaluate all the options open to him,” said the player’s agent before concluding, “However, at this stage in his career he wants to play in the Premier League and we are hopeful he will end up there.”
Recoba, or ‘El Chino’ as he is often known, joined Inter in 1997, but spent last season out on loan at Torino having lost his place in the starting line up.
He has won two league titles, two Italian Cups and the UEFA cup with the Nerazzurri whom he joined from Uruguyan side Nacional. His huge experience and talent would be a boost for Blackburn however they are likely to face stiff competition for his services from clubs all over the continent as well as in England.
