Aruna Dindane is a summer pick for Blackburn Rovers Football Club.

The Ivory Coast international striker is currently on loan at Portsmouth, but the financially-crippled club know they have little chance of taking him permanently.

Alex McLeish was interested in the player during the winter window, but was unable to come to an agreement over a price with his parent club Lens.

Reports in The Mirror claim this has left the door open to Sam Allardyce, and the Rovers boss is hoping to take Dindane from the French club for £2.5million.
