No Roque Bid

Last updated : 26 June 2011 By Andy

The sighs of relief can be heard all over Blackburn.  Manchester City have said that Rovers have not contacted them with a view to buying Santa Cruz since he was a flop here on loan last season, although Kean was interested.

But Rovers have hopes of bringing in Freiburg's Senegal international Cisse, but again, no bids have been made

Cisse's agent, Guido Nickolay, said: "Blackburn watched him about 10 times last season and I have seen the scout. But as yet we have not heard anything official.

"Of course Papiss would like the chance in the Premier League. There are clubs interested in him so anything is possible at the moment.

"Clubs from abroad have made bids for him but so far no English clubs have."
