New recruits Sebastian Peltzer, Dwight Yorke and Andy Todd are the only new faces at Ewood and having spent less than £3million in the close season, it’s been one of Rovers’ quieter summers.
“Quite simply, the money isn't available to pursue the transfer. We don't have the money to buy David Thompson,” confessed Souness.
“Yorkie and Toddy improve our squad a lot but I would have liked to have signed more players."
