Yakubu Poised To Complete Blackburn Switch

Everton striker Yakubu is very close to signing for Blackburn Rovers, BBC Sport Africa understands.

The Nigerian international, who spent part of last season on loan at Leicester City, looks set to sign for Rovers before the 11:00pm deadline.

Rovers boss Steve is Kean on the player (see what I did there?) and is confident of signing the 28-year-old, who has previously played for Portsmouth and Middlesbrough in the top-flight.

Blackburn are negotiating a deal with the Yak's agent, Pini Zahavi.
