Blackburn to bid for Hoyte?

Paul Ince is believed to be ready to make an offer for Arsenal's unhappy defender Justin Hoyte this summer. The English defender has been a long-term target of Martin O'Neill; the Aston Villa boss.

Blackburn may have to pay as much as £4 million to lure the Gunners into a sale, as Arsene Wenger has maintained for over two years that Hoyte is an important member of the first team squad of the future.

Aston Villa failed with three offers for the Arsenal defender previously, but now the Arsenal man could be ready to try his luck elsewhere.
