Rovers boss hoping to secure deal for veteran midfielder

Steve Kean has confirmed Blackburn Rovers are still trying to agree a deal to sign former Sunderland midfielder Bolo Zenden. The 35-year-old has been without a club since leaving the Black Cats last summer and recently spent a few days training with Blackburn. Zenden revealed he had been offered the opportunity to join Rovers' fight for Premier League survival, but was taking his time over a decision. Championship duo Doncaster Rovers and Leeds United have also been linked with moves to sign the former Netherlands international for the rest of the season. However, Kean has not given up hope of persuading Zenden to pitch up at Ewood Park as he looks to add some vital experience to Blackburn's bid to beat the drop. "It's ongoing," said Kean. "We've not tied anything up, but he's not committed to another club."
