Blackburn have joined with ever-growing list of
Premiership clubs to be linked with a takeover as investors from
the Unites States are reportedly keen on Rovers.
Manchester United, Liverpool and Aston Villa have been taken over
by Americans in the past two years, while a large number of other
top flight clubs have either been taken over by foriegn investors
or are currently being considered.
Rovers chairman John Williams, who is believed to be open for
offers, is reportedly examining an official approach, which could
materialise this summer.
The identity of the bidder has at this stage been kept a secret,
although San Francisco-based magnate Jerome Simon is known to be
thinking of investing in the Premiership having been connected with
Manchester City.
