Hughes won't sell Bentley
Mark Hughes has insisted that Blackburn have no need to sell star player David Bentley in the summer. Chelsea and Liverpool are both reportedly interested in the former Arsenal midfielder, but Hughes believes Bentley will stay as he has a good contract at the Rovers.
"We don't have to sell David Bentley and we aren't looking to sell him," said Hughes.
"The speculation happens every year with our better players, but if you look back, not many have ultimately been allowed to go.
"That's because we know we will be weakened as a consequence, so we are not looking to sell any of our major players and I don't expect it to happen.
"David Bentley has a good contract here and there is good length on that contract, so we don't have to sell."
