Rovers seal Vukcevic dealBlackburn Rovers have completed the signing of Simon Vukcevic from Sporting Lisbon.
The 25-year-old Montenegro international has penned a three-year deal at Ewood Park after the two clubs agreed a deal worth £2million.He is due to arrive in England later this week after completing the formalities of the deal.
"He is an exciting player who can play wide on either side," said Rovers boss Steve Kean.
"As a character, when you meet him he is a very focused guy, takes his football very seriously. He likes to take people on, to be the guy who makes a difference, a bit of a match winner.
"He is a very good player with lots of international games under his belt for a country in the top 20, so he has performed at that level on a consistent basis.
"He will give us a different dimension."
In revealing it had not worked out well for Vukcevic towards the end of his time at Sporting, Kean said: "So he has decided to come to us, which is brilliant for us.
"I've watched him a number of times live and if you can get the ball out wide to him and he can isolate a full-back, then it will be hard for anyone to stop him when he is on the run.
"That's exactly the type of player we have been after."
