Blackburn Rovers, under the management of John Eustace, have had a strong start to the new Championship season, winning their last three games against Cardiff City, Middlesbrough, and Leeds United. Currently sitting in 8th place in the Championship table, they are only two points off the play-off spots.
As they prepare for their upcoming away game against Hull City, there are three players who could attract interest in the January transfer window:
- Tyrhys Dolan: Dolan’s contract with Blackburn Rovers expires at the end of the season, making him a potential free agent in June 2025. With 180 appearances for the club, he has contributed 21 goals and 18 assists. The 22-year-old emphasized the team’s hard work and unity after their win over Leeds United, highlighting the squad’s determination and spirit.
- Igor Tyjon: At just 16 years old, Tyjon has a promising future in football. Although he has mainly been on the bench this season, he is highly regarded within the club. Blackburn Rovers acquired him from Rochdale in 2023, and there have been reports of interest from top clubs like Manchester United. Keeping hold of this talented teenager will be crucial for the club’s future.
- Harry Leonard: After being sidelined with injury for most of 2024, Leonard is now back in contention. However, his chances of regular first-team action are currently limited. A possible loan move in the winter transfer window could provide him with the necessary game time to progress in his career. With five goals in 27 appearances for Blackburn Rovers, Leonard will be looking to further showcase his talent.
Blackburn Rovers will need to carefully manage their talented players to ensure they continue their positive momentum in the Championship and potentially secure a place in the play-offs.Keeping key players like Dolan, nurturing young prospects like Tyjon, and providing opportunities for players like Leonard to develop will be essential for their continued success.
