Rovers Interested In The Nosebag Kid

Last updated : 28 March 2011 By Andy

Rovers owners Venky's have enjoyed letting it slip that they have been after the likes of Ronaldinho and David Beckham amongst others in January, now it’s Van Nistelrooy’s turn again.

Sam Allardyce once tried to sign the striker some two years past and failed, now Kean thinks he can succeed in getting his signature. He told ESPNsoccernet: "Yes, I can confirm we are interested."

Van Nistelrooy is out of contract at Hamburg in the summer and has already confirmed he will not sign a new deal at the Bundesliga club.

But that does not mean he would leave and come to what is evermore looking like a Championship club.
