Mark Hughes has revealed that Blackburn Rovers have rejected a new bid from Manchester City, this time in excess of £12 million, for their striker Roque Santa Cruz. The City boss revealed that he had been rebuffed after stepping up his interest in the Paraguayan he bought for Rovers last season from Bayern Munich for £3.5 million.
Blackburn chairman John Williams revealed on Wednesday lunchtime he was still waiting to receive an official offer from Eastlands for Santa Cruz.
It is believed contact was made last night at boardroom level and the improved bid tabled by chief executive Garry Cook. Blackburn announced on their website this morning that it had been rejected.
Rovers boss Sam Allardyce has made it clear he hopes to hold on to the club’s star man but, should City increase their offer to £18 million, Blackburn may be prepared to do business.
