Blackburn sold to Indian company

Indian poultry giant Venky's have completed £23 million Blackburn Rovers takeover. It is not yet finally confirmed if the new owners family will also clear the English Premier League club's £20 miilion debt.

The new owners have told the Riversiders' fans to "embrace us so we can do our best for the club, you will be delighted to add to the family a huge Indian and Asian fan base.... Going forward we plan to focus on leveraging the global influence in establishing Blackburn Rovers as a truly global brand... We will be actively supporting the organisation to ensure that Blackburn Rovers remains one of the best run clubs within the Premier League."

Rovers are 14th in the 20-team Premier League with 15 points and 13 games played.
