Danny Murphy is considering a surprise move to relegated Blackburn.

The former Liverpool and England midfielder, 35, has become a free agent after five years at Fulham and is ready to drop out of the Premier League if he can agree a two-year deal.

Blackburn face competition from several other Championship clubs, however, with Leicester also believed to be interested.

Dear God, please make this happen. Love, Paddy x

Would be the end of Wellens if this happened

Im sure we were linked with him back in the darker days, when he was free agent again, done fantastically well in the last three years after that and is a superb brain to have in the team.

I think its unlikely he will come here tho

Would be a tremendous signing.

Can't see it though.

[kingfox]

Will go Blackburn then...

But despite him not being the biggest of guys, it will be the defensive midfielder we need, could be quality at this level.

[Happy Fox]

Blackburn are a hardly an attractive proposition at this moment in time.

[paddy Agyemang]

Please come to us Danny boy. Make him our captain

[Libertine Dream]

Be a good signing but age is a concern

[Steven]

Be a good signing but age is a concern

He did manage 43 appearances last season.

[David Guiza]

Would absolutely love this to happen, he would be a country mile ahead of midfields in the championship class wise. Definitely got a couple of years left in him, especially with someone like Danns alongside him. I really can't see him signing for neither us or Blackburn though.

[EnderbyFox]

He's past his best, which is why I don't think Fulham will offer him a new contract, especially now they've got Diarra

He'd still boss the championship though, top player.

EDIT: My phone attempted to auto-correct Diarra into Diarrhea, how humorous.

Chuckles

[Dan]

Doubt it, definitely got the talent but will he have the hunger/drive?

Not a Pearson-like signing so for that I won't believe it until it happens.

[ealingfox]

We have to go for this. Would be a very good signing.

[leicesterisme]

Would absolutely love this, make it happen Nige! In all seriousness though I can still see him signing for a prem club.

[ronnup]

Would be the biggest signing since.....

Er..... When wa the last time we bought someone really good?

[Fox92]

I would love it, love it, if Danny Murphy signed for Leicester. Would be quality, still looked good on the ball for Fulham.

[Nick]

Doubt he will come here unfortunately.

BLACKBURN Rovers boss Steve Kean is lining up an ambitious move for veteran midfielder Danny Murphy as he looks to kick start their Champ-ionship preparations.

The 35-year-old midfielder is out of contract at Premier League Fulham this summer and Kean will look to tempt Murphy to Ewood with a two-year deal.

A host of clubs, from the Premier League and Cham-pionship are understood to be interested in Murphy, but few are so far prepared to offer him two years.

Sources close to Murphy have suggested the player would prefer to stay in the Premier League, with a new one year Fulham deal still a possibility, but the extra security of another year could persuade him to a drop down a level in East Lancashire.

Kean knows Murphy well having worked with him at Fulham and would see the former Liverpool, Spurs and Tottenham midfielder as the ‘experienced’ player the club lacked last campaign.

The under fire Rovers boss has already stated he is looking to add more experience this campaign, to compliment the club’s promising youngsters.

Sources close to the player have indicated the enquiries are at an early stage, with most of the staff at Ewood Park still in the dark about next season.

Kean’s efforts to bolster his squad won’t be helped by the uncertainty that still exists around Ewood Park, with owners Venky’s yet to communicate their plans

This is just another 'Lets tag Leicester to the end of the story because they're rich' deal. I highly doubt he'll end up here.

[Burmesefox]

doubt it will happen but maybe Konch can have a word with him

[ThurnbyLodgeFox]

please please please make it happen!

[1884Fox]

[Guest shearfox]

This would be a top signing, always rated him and at this level he would be one of the best midfielders in the division.

[dog_4]

he wouldn't come to a club that paid yakubu the same wages has Gareth Bale! we're not big enough
