Blackburn to move for Barcelona midfielder?

Blackburn Rovers are considering a bid for Barcelona midfielder Jonathan dos Santos, according to the Daily Mail.

The 21-year-old, who plays regularly in Barca's B team, is thought to be a target of the Premier League side with scouts reportedly sent to watch the midfielder recently.

The Brazilian, who is brother of Tottenham Hotspur's Giovani, is believed to be in conflict with the Primera Liga champions over a new contract.

Dos Santos is thought to be open to a move away from the Champions League winners amid fears that he may not break into the first team.
