Blackburn Rovers have moved quickly to deny that they are on the verge of a financial crisis, with a rumour circulating that Rovers needed to pay 10m GBP of debt to Barclays Bank.

  • Chelsea ready to sell four home-grown players
  • Predicted Chelsea line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Aston Villa, Palmer starts

  • But financial director at the club, Karen Silk, said: 



    "There is no financial crisis, and, there is absolutely no danger to the players' and staff wages.



    "Amongst all professional football clubs, finances are regularly assessed and reassessed during the season based on performance, income and costs, and at Blackburn Rovers this is no different.



    "Barclays Bank and Blackburn Rovers have enjoyed a long relationship over many years and are currently in constructive dialogue about how the bank, along with the owners, can support the club for many years to come.''
